Pulled Pork

Pulled Pork recipe, Eat well on Universal Credit

Originally an American invention to use the front parts of a Pig which we usually make into Sausages. Pulled Pork is a great way to use the ver cheapest cuts. This joint was less that £2. Yes it is a bit of boneless shoulder and yes it would heve been touch as old boots! But not this way.
 
Note:-  Sue is not keen on BBQ sauce so I used a simple gravy at the end of the process to moisten the meat.
 
Ingredients:-
 
Pork Shoulder cut. Bone in or out, it's down to what is available.
Stock, beef, chicken or if you have your own any base stock will work.
Sale & Pepper.
Oil.
 
Method:-
 
(1) Don't start this expecting to eat in less than 3 hours!.
(2) Turn the oven up to 200c or so.
(3) If using Stock Cube mix with boiling water stir well and set aside.
(4) Mix the Salt and Pepper with the Oil and rub the meat well.
(5) Add the Stock to an oven proof dish.
(6) Place the joint in the dish and put in the oven on a very high heat for the first 20 minutes.
(7) Lower the heat to 140c and cover with foil.
(8) Go away, take the kids out. Clean the loo. Do whatever will distract you from the cooking smells for at the very least 2 ½ hours.
(9) When the meat is really over cooked and very tender take it out and on a board run two forks against each other to shred the meat.
(10) Add Gravy or BBQ sauce and stir well.
(11) Re-heat in a pan if requited.
 
Serve in a Yorkshire Pudding with vegetables of your choice.

First Roast of 2020

We’re not overly keen of the white meat on a Turkey. But when a thigh and drummer are available I grab one. At £4.25 it’s considerable better value weight for weight than a Chicken as we often get 6 servings out of it. On Wednesday we did the Turkey Rissoles, yesterday we had a roast with the thigh. We still have leftovers which will probably make the foundation for a Pasta or Curry dish this evening.

Turkey leg meat doesn’t have a particularly strong flavour so it can be treated like all sorts of other meats. On this occasion Sue might well have been pretending that it was Lamb!

Ingredients:-

1 Turkey Thigh
2 sprigs of fresh Rosemary ( Acquired from the local bush )
4 Cloves of Garlic, halved
Oil
Salt & Pepper

Method:-

(1) Rub the the thigh with Oil and season well.
(2) Pierce with a knife and push the Garlic into the meat.
(3) Oil a baking tray.
(4) Place the sprig of Rosemary in the tray and sit the Turkey on top.
(5) Cover with foil and place in the oven at 180c for an hour or so.

We enjoyed ours with Gluten free Yorkshire puddings, Roast Potatoes, plenty of Vegetables and home made Gravy. Superb!
