Hawaiian Pulled Pork

By

When you've never made something before, you always wonder how it's going to turn out - even more so when you're making up your own recipe! So I did have a little panic going on...however, as I smelled the pork slowly cook away in my slow cooker I knew I didn't have to worry.

I've provided the list of ingredients, along with the directions at the end of this post, so you can always jump to the recipe to print/save it using the 'Print Friendly' button.

To make this delicious Hawaiian pulled pork recipe you will need a pork shoulder joint (I believe this is the same as pork butt), chilli sauce (as hot as you like it! I used the regular Maggi brand), crushed pineapple in juice, teriyaki marinade (I used Kikkoman brand), light soy suace, tomatoe purée, smoked paprika, freshly ground black pepper, some onions, carrots, garlic and fresh ginger.

Preparation

Step 1

Remove the layer of fat that is on top of the pork shoulder using a sharp knife

Step 2

Sprinkle the pork with the paprika and black pepper and rub in on all sides.

Step 3

Place the pork into a bowl and add the tomato paste, chilli sauce, crushed pineapple and juice, light soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, sugar, garlic and ginger. Mix everything together well with your hands and leave to marinade for a few hours, or overnight if you can.

Step 4

When you are ready to cook the pork, (bearing in mind this takes a minimum of 8 hours in the slow cooker!), turn your slow cooker onto high and add the onion and carrot to support the pork. Take the pork out of the marinade and place into the slow cooker on top of the vegetables, and the pour over the sauce. After 1 hour, turn the slow cooker down to low and leave for at least 8 hours. Up to 12 hours isn't going to hurt it!

Step 5

When ready to serve, gently pull the pork into strips with a couple of forks. Serve piled into soft bread rolls.

Step 6

serve with love
