Pulled Pork Tyler Florence Recipes

PULLED PORK SANDWICH

Steps:

• Place the pork, fat side up, in a roasting pan fitted with a rack insert. Place the salt, pepper, brown sugar, paprika, thyme leaves, garlic, vinegar, and cayenne in a food processor and pulse until well combined. Add extra-virgin olive oil until you have a nice paste. Rub all over the pork, being sure to get into the nooks so the salt can penetrate the meat and pull out the moisture - this will help form a crust on the outside when cooked. Cover the pork with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or up to overnight.
• Allow the meat to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Roast the pork for 3 1/2 hours, uncovered, until the outside is crispy-brown (it should look like mahogany). Let the meat rest on a cutting board for 10 minutes before slicing.
• While the pork is cooking, prepare the slaw. Combine the mustard, mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, vinegar and sugar. Mix well and add finely sliced savoy cabbage, purple cabbage, green onions and carrots. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, cover with plastic wrap and set aside in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve.
• To serve, cut the brioche buns in half and pile up some sliced pork. Top with a large spoonful of coleslaw and place the top half of the bun on top. Garnish with parsley.

OVEN-ROASTED PULLED PORK SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Mix the paprika, garlic power, brown sugar, dry mustard, and salt together in a small bowl. Rub the spice blend all over the pork and marinate for as long as you have time for, as little as 1 hour or up to overnight, covered, in the refrigerator.
• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.
• Put the pork in a roasting pan and bake for about 6 hours. Basically, roast the pork until it's falling apart and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 170 degrees F.
• To make the barbecue sauce: combine the vinegar, mustard, ketchup, brown sugar, garlic, salt, cayenne, and black pepper in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer gently, stirring, for 10 minutes until the sugar dissolves.
• Remove the pork roast from the oven and transfer to a large platter. Allow the meat to rest for about 10 minutes. While still warm, take 2 forks and "pull" the meat to form shreds. Using 2 forks, shred the pork by steadying the meat with 1 fork and pulling it away with the other. Put the shredded pork in a bowl. Pour 1/2 of the sauce on the shredded pork and mix well to coat.
• To serve, spoon the pulled pork mixture onto the bottom 1/2 of the hamburger bun, and top with the spicy slaw. Serve with pickle spears and the remaining sauce on the side.
• Combine the cabbage, carrot, red onion, green onions, and chile in a large bowl. In another bowl, mix the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, and sugar; stirring to incorporate. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss gently to mix. Season the cole slaw with celery seed, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Chill for 2 hours in refrigerator before serving.

TYLER FLORENCE'S ULTIMATE BARBECUED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Brine the chicken as follows: Combine water, salt, sugar, garlic, and thyme in a 2-gallon sized resealable plastic bag.
• Add the chicken, close the bag and refrigerate 2 hours (if you've got only 15 minutes, that's fine) to allow the salt and seasonings to penetrate the chicken.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce as follows: Wrap the bacon around the bunch of thyme and tie with kitchen twine so you have a nice bundle.
• Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the thyme and cook slowly 3 to 4 minutes to render the bacon fat and give the sauce a smoky taste.
• Add the onion and garlic. Cook slowly without coloring for 5 minutes.
• Add the remaining ingredients, give the sauce a stir, and turn the heat down to low.
• Cook slowly for 20 minutes to meld the flavors.
• Cook the chicken as follows: Preheat an outdoor gast or charcoal barbecue to medium heat.
• Take a few paper towels and fold them several times to make a thick square. Blot a small amount of oil on the paper towel and carefully and quickly wipe the hot grates of the grill to make a non-stick surface.
• Remove the chicken from the brine, pat the chicken dry on the paper towels.
• Arrange the chicken pieces on the preheated grill and cook,turn once mid way, and cook for a total of 15 minutes.

SMOTHERED PORK CHOPS - TYLER FLORENCE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• 1. Put the flour in a shallow platter and add the onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper; mix with a fork to distribute evenly. 2. Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels to remove any moisture and then dredge them in the seasoned flour; shaking off the excess. 3. Heat a large saute pan or cast iron skillet over medium heat and coat with the oil. 4. When the oil is nice and hot, lay the pork chops in the pan in a single layer and fry for 3 minutes on each side until golden brown. 5. Remove the pork chops from the pan and add a little sprinkle of seasoned flour to the pan drippings. 6. Mix the flour into the fat to dissolve and then pour in the chicken broth. 7. Let the liquid cook down for 5 minutes to reduce and thicken slightly. 8. Stir in the buttermilk to make a creamy gravy and return the pork chops to the pan, covering them with the sauce. 9. Simmer for 5 minutes until the pork is cooked through. 10. Season with salt and pepper and garnish with chopped parsley before serving.

OVEN ROASTED PULLED PORK SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Mix the paprika, garlic power, brown sugar, dry mustard, and 3 T salt together in a small bowl. Rub the spice blend all over the pork and marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 300°. Put the pork in a roasting pan and bake for about 6 hoursuntil the inside temperature reaches 170° and the roast is falling apart.
• Meanwhile, for barbecue sauce, combine the vinegar, mustard, ketchup, brown sugar, garlic, salt, cayenne, and pepper in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer gently, stirring, for 10 minutes until the sugar dissolves.
• Allow the meat to rest for about 10 minutes after removing from oven. While still warm, take 2 forks and "pull" the meat to form shreds.
• Place the shredded pork in a bowl and pour 1/2 of the sauce on the shredded pork and mix well to coat.
• Serve on hamburger buns with remaining sauce on the side.
• Note: The above is Tyler Florence's actual recipe, but when I make it I make a few changes. It does not specify, but cover the roasting pan before putting in the oven. Also, pour a little water in the bottom of the roasting pan and check periodically to make sure it does not dry up completely. I found the drippings in the bottom of the pan burned if I didn't do this.
• Note: For the sauce, I use 1C each of cider vinegar, mustard and ketchup as well as 1/2 C brown sugar and 1/2 t cayenne. I use all of the sauce to mix in the meat. I don't think half is enough. If you want more sauce on the side, I would suggest making more.

TYLER FLORENCE'S ULTIMATE RIBS RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250°F. Place the ribs on baking sheet, season with salt, pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Stick them in the oven and let the ribs bake low and slow for 1 ½ hours. Meanwhile, make the sauce. Wrap the bacon around the middle of the thyme sprigs and tie with kitchen twine so you have a nice bundle. Heat a 2 count of oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the thyme bundle and cook slowly for 3 to 4 minutes to render the bacon fat and give the sauce a smoky flavor. Add the onion and garlic and cook slowly, without coloring, for 5 minutes. Add all the rest of the sauce ingredients, give the sauce a stir, and turn the heat down to low. Cook slowly for 20 minutes for the flavors to meld. Put some sauce in a separate bowl for basting, reserving the remaining for serving. Baste the ribs with the sauce and continue cooking, basting twice more for 30 minutes. When the ribs are cooked, take them out of the oven. You can let them hang out like this until youre ready to eat. When you're ready to eat, preheat the broiler for 5 minutes. Broil the ribs, basting with the sauce, until they are crisp and browned somewhat, or to your liking.
