  11. Using two forks or thongs, pull the pork apart and mix it with the juices. This is loaded with flavor!

Notes

  • Add chipotle powder or your favorite hot sauce.
  • Add a couple of tablespoons of apple cider vinegar for a little tang.
  • Don't skip the searing step! Browning the meat creates complexity and a richer flavor in the final dish.
  • After searing, use the broth to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  • How to Serve
  • Serve on buns with barbecue sauce and coleslaw.
  • This pork is amazing in tacos! Top with your favorite salsa, chopped onion, and cilantro.
