If to thick thin out with either chicken or beef stock.
~these are not exact amounts, I cook tailored to the taste, just have fun with it!
PULLED PORK
Ingredients
Pork - pork butt is best but pork loin will work (approx 7 pds)
Cumin
Coriander
Chili Powder
Brown Sugar
Kosher Salt
Water
and BBQ from above
Rub Pork with equal parts of all the spices
Place in oven proof pan (brasising pot/pan is ideal)- thou you can use crock pot
Bring equal parts chicken and beef stock to a boil
Add a little BBQ Sauce
Pour the boiling liquid into the Pork Pan so that it covers 3/4 of the Pork
Cover Pan well with Aluminum foil
Place in preheated oven 400 degree for 3 to 4 hours
(cook until it shreds easily with 2 forks)
Break it apart with 2 forks and mix with BBQ Sauce to your preference and serve
Save the braining liquid as it is great for reheating the pork and for homemade soups!
It sounds like alot of work, it really is an easy recipe.
ENJOY!!
