This is always a hit! Works great in rolls with coleslaw. Leftovers are great for nachos, pasta or tacos.
Ingredients:
2 onions – chopped
4 cloves garlic – crushed
1 cup chicken stock
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon sea salt flakes
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2-2.5kg Forequarter roast – Boneless
1.5 cups BBQ sauce
Method:
- in a bowl (or I use a ziplock bag), mix brown sugar, sea salt, cumin and cinnamon together
- Take the pork out and remove all the netting and pay dry with a paper towel
- Rub the dry mix all over the pork and into the middle of the pork.
- In a slow cooker, mix onion, garlic and chicken stock
- Put pork on top of the mixture
- Cook on low for 8-10 hours
- Take the pork out, remove the fatty layer on top and shred the meat using 2 forks
- Mix in BBQ sauce – If you are making tacos, take some out BEFORE you put in bbq sauce
- Drain the sauce that is in the slow cooker and discard onion and any solids
- Put the pork back into the slow cooker. Pour in the drained sauce – 1 ladle at a time mixing well so it is absorbed into the pork. Do not add more than the pork can absorb – you do not want it to be runny. Put the slow cooker back on low until you are ready to serve the pork
- Serve with warm bread rolls and coleslaw
- Keep the remaining sauce as a stock for later
