Slow-Roasted Pulled Pork and Aged Cheddar Burger
Slow-Roasted Pulled Pork and Aged Cheddar Burger

Ingredients

Method

  • 1.5kg boneless pork shoulder
  • 250ml apple cider vinegar
  • 4 brioche burger buns, toasted
  • 4 thick slices aged cheddar
  • 1 cup coleslaw (store-bought or homemade)
  • Sliced pickles and hot sauce, to serve
  • For the Dry rub
  • 2 tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • ½ tsp cayenne pepper
  • Rub the pork shoulder all over with the dry rub. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours (overnight is better). Preheat oven to 150°C. Place pork in a deep roasting tin, pour apple cider vinegar around the base, cover tightly with foil, and roast for 4–5 hours until fork-tender.
  • Remove foil, increase oven to 200°C and roast a further 20–30 minutes to caramelise the surface. Rest for 15 minutes, then pull into generous chunks with two forks. Toss with pan juices.
  • Pile pulled pork onto toasted buns, add cheddar (the residual heat will melt it nicely), coleslaw, pickles and a splash of hot sauce.
