EASY SLOW-COOKER PULLED PORK



Easy Slow-Cooker Pulled Pork image

No barbecue sauce here! Smoky chipotle chiles in adobo set this pulled pork apart. Martha made this recipe on Cooking School episode 402. It comes from our book, "One Pot: 120+ Easy Meals from Your Skillet, Slow Cooker, Stockpot, and More."

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Time 6h30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 dried bay leaves
1 chipotle in adobo sauce, minced, plus 1 tablespoon adobo
1 can (28 ounces) crushed tomatoes
1 can (14.5 ounces) whole tomatoes in puree
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
2 3/4 pounds boneless pork shoulder, trimmed and halved crosswise
8 sandwich rolls, split, for serving
Coleslaw, for serving
Pickles, for serving

Steps:

  • In a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker, combine onion, oregano, bay leaves, chipotle, adobo sauce, tomatoes (and puree), salt, and pepper. Add pork and turn to coat completely.
  • Cover and cook on high until meat is pull-apart tender, about 6 hours. Transfer pork to a bowl; shred with two forks. Return pork to pot, and toss with sauce. Discard bay leaves.
  • Serve pulled pork with rolls, coleslaw, and pickles.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder (also known as pork butt) is the best cut for pulled pork. It's a tough cut of meat, but it becomes tender and flavorful when cooked slowly.
  • Season the pork well: Before cooking, season the pork with a rub of your favorite spices. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
  • Cook the pork on low heat: Pulled pork should be cooked on low heat for a long period of time. This allows the meat to break down and become tender.
  • Add liquid to the slow cooker: Adding liquid to the slow cooker helps to keep the pork moist and flavorful. You can use water, broth, or even beer.
  • Shred the pork: Once the pork is cooked, shred it with two forks. This will make it easier to serve and eat.

Conclusion:

Pulled pork is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It can be served on sandwiches, tacos, or salads. It can also be used as a filling for burritos or enchiladas. No matter how you choose to serve it, pulled pork is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
