Braised BBQ Pulled Pork image

Pulled pork braised in a spicy, tangy, West Virginia-style BBQ sauce (recipe was adapted from a BBQ sauce recipe in "Mountain Measures" WV cookbook I grew up with). It is also wonderful made with more water and served over mashed or baked potatoes.

Time 3h50m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 (3 pound) pork tenderloin, trimmed
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ cup cider vinegar
⅓ cup water
1 large onion, chopped
2 tablespoons prepared yellow mustard
2 slices lemon, seeded
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 teaspoons honey
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup ketchup
4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season pork with salt and pepper. Sear in the hot Dutch oven on all sides, about 5 minutes total. Remove and set aside.
  • Combine vinegar, water, onion, mustard, lemon slices, butter, honey, and cayenne in the Dutch oven and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove lemon. Add ketchup and Worcestershire sauce and return to a boil; add pork and cover tightly with a lid or foil.
  • Braise in the center of the preheated oven until meat shreds easily with a fork, about 3 hours. Check occasionally to see if a little water should be added. Remove from the oven and shred pork into sauce using 2 forks.
