Instructions
 

Oven Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 140°C (fan-forced).
  • In a large ovenproof casserole dish, heat ghee or oil over medium heat. Brown the pork on both sides. Remove and set aside.
  • Add the diced apple, onion, and garlic to the hot pan and sauté until caramelised and softened.
  • Pour in the bone broth and Worcestershire sauce.
  • Return pork (and any juices) to the pot. Liquid should come up about ⅔ of the way.
  • Sprinkle liberally with the spice mix to form a delicious crust.
  • Cover with lid and bake in the oven for 6 hours, or until the pork is soft and pulls apart easily.
  • Shred the pork with two forks and mix through the juices. Add BBQ sauce now if using (pull baby’s portion first if needed).
  • Return to oven uncovered at 180°C for 30–60 minutes until sticky and caramelised.

Slow Cooker Instructions

  • Brown pork in a pan, then add all ingredients (except BBQ sauce) to the slow cooker.
  • Cook on low for 8–10 hours or high for 4–5 hours, until the meat pulls apart easily.
  • Shred and stir through juices. For a sticky finish, you can transfer to an oven-safe dish, stir in BBQ sauce (if using), and grill for 15 minutes to caramelise.

Pineapple salsa

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine.
