Slow cooker pulled pork

Our slow cooker pulled pork delivers deliciously tender and fall-apart meat that’s packed full of flavour.

This hands-off dish is just as tasty as pulled pork from the BBQ – and it requires less effort and can be enjoyed as a weeknight meal or low-effort weekend feast. Simply place all the ingredients into the slow cooker’s pot and let it do its thing.

What you'll need...

  • 2 large onions, sliced
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tsp sea salt flakes
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 3 tbsp tomato puree
  • 2 tbsp dark brown sugar
  • 1.5kg boneless pork shoulder, skin removed

To serve

  • Coleslaw
  • Gherkins, sliced
  • Sesame bread rolls

Method

  1. Preheat the slow cooker to HIGH. 

  2. Place the sliced onions at the bottom of the slow cooker. If you have time, caramelising the onions beforehand can add extra texture and caramel flavours to the dish but it’s not essential. 

  3. Create the marinade by mixing the spices, mustard, tomato puree, salt, pepper and sugar together. Rub the marinade over the pork shoulder then sit it on top of the onions. 

  1. Cook for 8 hours on HIGH. 

  2. Once cooked, remove the pork shoulder from the slow cooker and shred. 

  3. Serve in soft bread rolls with coleslaw and sliced gherkins. Add any other sauces you may want and pair with your favourite side dishes.
