Pulled Pork Sandwich
Mmmm this was really good and it made a lot, so leftovers can be frozen!
Ingredients:
1 boneless pork shoulder 4-5 lbs
salt and black pepper to taste
1/2 T canola or vegetable oil
1 cup apple cider vinegar
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 T liquid smoke
hamburger buns (I made these french bread rolls)
coleslaw (optional; I don't like it so I didn't use any)
Heat a large skillet or saute pan over med-high heat. Cut the pork into 2 or 3 big pieces and season with salt and pepper. Add the oil to the pan and when hot, sear the pieces of pork until thoroughly browned on the outside. Remove the pork and place in a slow cooker.
Add the vinegar to the hot pan and deglaze, scraping any bits of browned meat stuck to the bottom. Pour vinegar over the pork, then add the broth and liquid smoke. Set the slow cooker to high and cook for 4 hours, until the pork falls apart with gentle pressure. Remove the pork from the liquid and shred. Toss with a bit more vinegar and serve on top of warm buns with coleslaw.
*Note: I also added a little bbq sauce to my sandwich because, well, I love it and to add a little more juiciness.
