This recipe is simple to cook but delicious, I like a hint of spice in my pulled pork marinade, I also cook it in cider for extra yumminess!

• 800 g Pork, boneless shoulder is great
• Dry Rub
• 1 tbsp paprika
• 1 tbsp smoked paprika
• 1 tsp cayenne pepper
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp sea salt
• Marinade
• 2 tbsps soft brown sugar
• 2 tbsps Worcester sauce
• 2 tbsps red wine vinegar
• 2 tbsps runny honey
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp ketchup
• 1 tbsp brown sauce
• 20g fresh sage leaves
• 20 g fresh thyme
• Roasting
• 1 small bottle of apple cider, around 300ml
• 1 whole garlic bulb, halved with skin on
• 1 onion, halved
• 1 carrot, peeled and halved

• Mix the ingredients together for the dry rub and pat all over the pork meat, set aside for 15 minutes.
• In a blender, blitz up all of the marinade ingredients into a paste.
• Pour the marinade all over the Pork. Leave this in the fridge for 30 minutes to an hour.
• Heat the oven to the highest setting.
• Take a deep sided aluminium roasting tray and add the onion and carrot, along with the garlic.
• Place the pork over the top scraping over all of the extra marinade.
• Pour the bottle of cider into the tray until it comes up to about an inch of the pork meat.
• Place into the oven uncovered for 20 minutes.
• Turn the heat down to 150 degrees, cover the tray and cook for 2 hours.
• Check the meat to see if it is tender, it should fall apart easily.
• Carefully remove the meat from the liquid, shred and set aside.
• Remove the garlic from the skin, add to a blender along with the onion and carrot and scoop in a ladle of the juice. Blend to be smooth.
• Pour this back into the roasting tin and place directly onto a hob, let this all bubble up and thicken.(If using a glass or ceramic tray scrape the marinade into a non stick pan)
• Add the pork into the roasting tray and mix well with the sauce.
• Serve with my healthy slaw and bread.
