BBQ Pulled Pork Swineapple
Categories: Pork
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp dark brown sugar
- 1 tbsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tbsp black pepper
- 1/2 tbsp mustard powder
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1.6 kg pork shoulder, skin removed
- 200ml BBQ sauce
- 1 large pineapple
- Around 20 slices bacon
- Mozzarella
Preparation:
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/400°F.
- Mix together the sugar, salt, paprika, black pepper, mustard powder, garlic powder and onion powder.
- Rub the pork all over with the spice mix and roast for around 30 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and wrap with foil then turn down the heat to around 130° and return to the oven for around 5 hours, until the pork is soft and tender.
- Pull apart with forks and toss with BBQ sauce.
- Meanwhile, skin the pineapple and cut out a hollow in the middle (keeping the leaves and the bottom intact - you are going to stuff it with the pulled pork after all).
- Stretch the bacon out and wrap it round the pineapple (secure with cocktail sticks).
- Roast at 180°C for 20 mins, then take out of the oven and glaze with more BBQ sauce.
- Pop back in the oven for a further 20 mins.
- Slice and serve with chips.
