Garlic Pulled Pork Recipes

GARLIC PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Remove bone from pork butt. Combine garlic, liquid smoke, salt, and black pepper in a bowl and rub into pork.
• Cover the bottom of a slow cooker with green cabbage leaves. Place 1 layer of onion slices on top. Add pork.
• Combine water and chicken base in a microwave-safe measuring cup and microwave on high until dissolved, about 45 seconds. Pour over pork. Break up remaining onion slices and place on top. Cover with another layer of cabbage leaves. Cover the lid.
• Cook on Low for 8 hours. Turn pork over and, if needed, remove any excess liquid to leave the top 2 inches uncovered. Cover and continue to cook until fork-tender, about 8 hours more.
• Transfer pork to a large bowl and shred with 2 forks, adding juices from the slow cooker to moisten. Serve alone or over the cabbage mixture.

PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F.
• Combine all the spices for the rub and massage it into the meat. Place the rubbed pork in a roasting pan and pour the beer into the pan. Cover it with foil and roast for 6 hours. Check it periodically just to make sure everything is going along just fine, turning it over every 2 hours.
• Remove the foil and roast until the pork has reached an internal temperature of 190 degrees F, about another 3 hours. Remove it from the oven, cover it loosely with foil, and let it rest for 30 minutes.
• Sometime during the marathon cook time, make the sauce. In a small saucepan combine all the ingredients and bring to a boil. Taste it to make sure it is delicious. Remove the chiles. When the sauce is cool, I recommend putting it in a squeeze bottle for easy use.
• Remove the bone from the pork, it should slide right out. Using your hands with dish gloves on, or with two forks, start to "pull" the pork into long shreds. Get rid of the fat and anything else that doesn't look delicious.
• Serve the pork on burger buns with a drizzle of vinegar sauce to your liking and top with Broccoli Stem and Carrot Slaw.
• Combine all the ingredients. Season with salt to make sure it is delicious. Let sit for at least 1 hour before serving.

EASY OVEN PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• Use a pairing knife to cut 8 small slits into the pork, about 1 1/2 inches deep. Insert a garlic clove into each slit. Sprinkle pork evenly on all sides with salt and pepper. Place pork, fat-side up, in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Cook in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
• Reduce heat to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Carefully pour 3/4 cup water around the sides of the pork. Cover with foil and cook for 1 1/2 hours. Remove foil and continue to cook until pork is tender and meat has pulled away from the bone, about 1 1/2 hours more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Remove from the oven and let stand for 20 minutes. Remove large fat layer and any other large pieces of fat. Pull pork apart and shred.
