This started out as a bit of a joke as we had a giant Yorkshire Pudding spare. We hadn't seen that one of the major supermarkets were offering something similar. We think ours looks better, but we might be a bit biased....
We had a whole boned Pork Shoulder for £5.38 in the freezer. As one meal this would have been excessive and over budget. It’s also a slow roast gig. But we’ll most likely get 6 servings from the meat over the next few days.
For the Pulled Pork.
Ingredients:-
Pork Shoulder
A pint of Stock
Oil
Salt & Pepper
Onions
Rosemary
Garlic cloves, halved
Method:-
(1) Pour the stock into a casserole dish and add the Onions roughly chopped.
(2) Lay a couple of sprigs of Rosemary over the top.
(3) Stab the Pork with a sharp knife and push the halved Garlic into the meat.
(4) Season with Salt & Pepper and rub well with Oil.
(5) Cover with foil and place in the oven at 160c
(6) Leave to roast very slowly for at least 5 ½ hours.
We did actually end up with reasonable crackling, which is rare with a home frozen joint. So we served the pulled Pork with crackling over the top, home fermented Kimchee (Recipe here), Garlic and Clive Cheese and hand cut chips. A bit of Piccalilli and it was a very taste and simple supper.
The stock and Onions are in a jar in the fridge and will make the base for an outstanding gravy!
