Time 8h15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tsp smoked paprika
2 tsp ground cumin
2 tsp pepper
2 tsp brown sugar
1 tsp salt
2 medium mugfuls of cider
boneless shoulder of pork (about 2.5kg)
a mugful of a good smoky barbecue sauce
soft white rolls
coleslaw (see 'Goes well with...' below)

Steps:

  • Mix together 2 tsp each smoked paprika, ground cumin, pepper, and brown sugar, plus 1 tsp salt. Rub over the 2.5kg boneless shoulder of pork.
  • Put the pork in a big casserole dish, skin-side up, and pour in 2 medium mugfuls of cider.
  • Cover with a lid and cook in the oven at 150C/130C fan/gas 2 for anywhere between 4 and 8 hrs until falling apart. Check every few hours in case it gets dry - if it does, add another mugful of cider.
  • Take it out of the oven and put the meat in a big dish, leaving the liquid in the casserole.
  • Cut the skin off, then shred the meat using two forks. Ditch any fatty bits, and skim any excess fat off the surface of the sauce.
  • Add a mugful of a good smoky BBQ sauce to the casserole, mix it in, then ladle some into a bowl for dipping.
  • Put the pulled pork back in the casserole with the juices so it stays moist. Season to taste. Can be made one day ahead.
  • Serve in soft white rolls with coleslaw and the bowl of juices on the side for 'French dipping' the sandwich while you're eating.
