Today’s Recipe: Spicy Apple Cider Pulled Pork

Hey there, foodies! Today I’m excited to share with you a recipe that’s perfect for those cozy fall nights when you want something hearty and flavorful. This spicy apple cider pulled pork is a unique twist on the classic BBQ favorite, and it’s sure to become a new go-to in your recipe rotation.

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • 500g pork shoulder, diced
  • 250ml apple cider
  • 2 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

To bring this delicious dish to life, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • slow cooker
  • skillet
  • wooden spoon

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat and searing the diced pork shoulder until browned on all sides. Transfer the pork to a slow cooker and add in the apple cider, minced chipotle peppers, garlic, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, sliced onion, salt, and pepper. Give everything a good stir to combine.

Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork. Once the pork is cooked, use two forks to shred it into bite-sized pieces, mixing it with the flavorful sauce in the slow cooker.

Serve the spicy apple cider pulled pork on brioche buns, topped with your favorite coleslaw or pickles for a delicious contrast of flavors and textures. This dish weighs approximately 900g once cooked, serving 4 people with around 225g per serving. Each serving is estimated to be around 350 calories.

One unique tip for this recipe is to add a splash of apple cider to the pork as it cooks to enhance the apple flavor and keep the meat moist. It’s a small touch that makes a big difference in the final dish!

I hope you enjoy making and eating this spicy apple cider pulled pork as much as I do. Feel free to play around with the spice levels or add in extra ingredients like diced apples for a personal twist. Happy cooking!
