Ingredients
Pineapple Glazed Pulled Pork
- 1 pineapple, peeled and cored
- 2 lb boneless pork shoulder
- 1 Tbsp coconut oil or vegetable oil
- 1 cooking onion, chopped
- 4 cloves fresh garlic, chopped
- 1 thumb of fresh ginger, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
- Kosher salt for seasoning
- Freshly cracked black peppercorns for seasoning
- 2 Tbsp Vidalia onion rings, thinly sliced
- 2 Aloha™ peppers cut into rings 2” wide, dice the remaining pieces
- 4 grilled pineapple rings, reserved from above
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1 Tbsp fresh ginger, finely julienned
- 1 tsp white sesame seeds
- Mint for garnish
Directions
- Heat oven to 325°F.
- Preheat a cast iron grill grate or bbq to high heat.
- Preheat a cast iron roaster with a lid to high heat
- Cut pineapple into 6 rings, each about 1” thick. Season with salt and pepper and grill approximately 5-7 minutes per side. Reserve 4 grilled rings for plating.
- Season pork shoulder liberally with salt and pepper and sear on all sides in roaster until browned. Once browned, remove from pan, and set aside.
- Reduce roaster to medium-high heat, and add oil, onions, garlic, and ginger. Sauté until browned. Add chicken stock, and 2 of the 6 pineapple rings.
- Bring to a boil and return pork shoulder to the roaster. Cover and cook in oven for 2 ½ hours.
- Once cooked, place pork shoulder on a tray until cool enough to touch. Break up and strain all the ingredients from the cooking liquid in the roasting pan. Reduce over high-heat until the liquid is half of the original volume. Discard the waste.
- Shred pork with two forks. Toss pulled pork with diced peppers and reduced pineapple glaze from roasting tray. Toss until evenly coated.
Putting It Together
- Place onion rings in ice water for 10 minutes then drain well.
