Recipe: Pulled Pork Recipe
We haven’t posted many of our recipes lately, but after watching Julie and Julia, here goes :).
So my wife had a craving for pulled pork… we found this recipe on ehow.com
Things You’ll Need:
Crock Pot
Pork Roast
3 Tbsp Chili Powder
4 Limes
2 Tbsp Salt
1 Tbsp Black Pepper
1 Tbsp Garlic Powder
1/4 c Vegetable Oil
2 Tsp Crushed Red Pepper
Step 1: Marinade.
Put all of the seasonings, the juice from all of the limes and the oil in a large plastic bag. Add the pork and refrigerate at least 2 hours. This will not only give the pork flavor, it will make it tender enough to pull apart. The longer the marinade sits, the better. Try overnight.
Step 2: Crock It.
Put the pork & marinade in the crock pot. Add water to almost the top of the pork roast. The roast should be above the water about an inch. Turn the crock pot on high and cover. After 3 hours, reduce heat to low or auto. Turn the pork roast every 2 hours and poke with a fork. When the fork goes in the roast easily and breaks apart, cook it for at least another 30 minutes.
Step 3: Shred It.
When the pork roast is done, remove it from the crock pot and place on a platter or in a glass baking dish. Use two forks and begin pulling the pork apart. It should shred very easily. Add some juices from the pot to the pork. Enough to keep it moist and juicy, but not too much.
I’ll update how it turns out…
