How to cook:
  1. Pulled Pork
  2. Cut the pork shoulder in half and trim all excess fat - there will be quite a bit. It's fine if you cut the pork up to get at the fat
  3. Mix the salt and pepper with the Schwartz Perfect Shake Classic BBQ Seasoning and rub it all over the pork. Make sure to massage. Place the pork in the fridge for a few hours or use immediately
  4. Place the Instant Pot into Sauté mode and spray with low calorie cooking spray. Brown the pork on all sides, don't worry if the bottom of the pot browns
  5. Remove the pork from the pot and deglaze with a bit of the stock. Make sure all browned bit are off the bottom
  6. Tip in the onions and cook until they soften. Add the pork back to the pot and pour in the stock and Worcestershire sauce
  7. Place
  8. Lock the lid, turn the valve to sealing and place the Instant Pot into Manual mode. Increase the time to 90. The pot will come to pressure and when it's done so it'll start to count down
  9. Allow
  10. Once finished, allow the pot to naturally release it's pressure for 15 minutes
  11. Place the pork and onions on a plate and run the remaining juices through a fat separator to get rid of the fat. Return the juices to the pot, and put the pot into Sauté mode
  12. Add
  13. Once the juices have reduced by half add in your BBQ sauce & simmer stirring frequently for another 5 minutes. Whilst this bubbles away pull your pork & onions with a couple of forks. It will just melt, resist the temptation to pick!
  14. Add the pork into the sauce and stir well. Place the pot into 'Keep Warm' if you want to go back for seconds. You probably will!!
  15. BBQ Sauce
  16. Cook
  17. Spray a frying pan with low calorie cooking spray and cook the onions and garlic until the onions are soft
  18. Add the tomato puree and tinned tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes on high, stirring frequently
  19. Add in the rest of the ingredients, lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes, the sauce should thicken nicely
  20. Place into a sterilised jar, and store in the fridge until ready to use. Use within a week.

Provided by: Laura V
Total time: 270 minutes
Cook time: 240 minutes
Prep time: 30 minutes
Yields: 24 servings
Cuisine: non specific
Number of ingredients: 10
Ingredients:
  • 1.4 kg boneless pork shoulder joint ((weight before removing fat))
  • 2 tbsp BBQ seasoning
  • 2 tbsp clear honey
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp tomato puree
  • salt and black pepper (to taste)
  • 9 single sheets of filo pastry (30 x 26cm each)
  • 1 medium egg (beaten with a fork)
  • 1 1/2 tsp sesame seeds
  • 100 ml water
Nutrition:
  • Calories: 89 kcal
  • Carbohydrate: 6.9 g
  • Protein: 9.8 g
  • Fat: 2.3 g
  • Saturated Fat: 0.7 g
  • Sodium: 380 mg
  • Fiber: 0.5 g
  • Sugar: 2.3 g
  • Serving Size: 1 serving
How to cook:
  1. Pre-heat the oven to 160 ºC. Trim all visible fat off the pork joint and discard. Place the pork in a medium roasting tin.
  2. Mix
  3. In a small bowl, mix together the BBQ seasoning, honey, mustard, tomato puree and season with salt and black pepper.
  4. Pour the marinade over the pork joint and rub it all over. Cover tightly with foil and place in the preheated oven for 3.5 - 4 hours. Baste the joint occasionally with the juices in the roasting tin and re-cover tightly with foil.
  5. Add
  6. After about 3 hours, add 100 ml water and stir into the sticky residue in the roasting tin. Roughly break up the pork using two forks and stir into the sticky sauce.
  7. Re-cover tightly with foil and return to the oven for approximately 30 minutes - 1 hour. Check frequently that the mixture isn't drying out. If it is, stir in a little more water, until you have a moist, sticky mixture. The aim is to make a mixture where any excess liquid has reduced and the mixture is sticky and the pork is tender.
  8. Break up the pork mixture using two forks, until it’s finely shredded. If your pork isn't tender and shredding well, re-cover and continue cooking, adding a little more water as needed, until it is tender and will shred easily. Timings and the amount of water needed may vary slightly depending how much lean pork you started with after removing the fat, as this can vary from joint to joint. Be prepared to check on the pork frequently to stop it drying out and keep it moist by adding water if you think it needs it.
  9. Leave
  10. When you have a tender, shredded, sticky mixture, leave it to cool quickly. Increase the oven temperature to 180 ºC. Line two baking trays with non-stick baking paper.
  11. Assemble
  12. To assemble the rolls: Take 3 single sheets of filo pastry, 30 x 26 cm each, and place one on top of the other.
  13. Cut the 3 layered sheet in half lengthways to make 2 rectangles. Using a third of the pork mixture, divide between the 2 rectangles, placing lengthways down the centre of each.
  14. Brush some beaten egg down one long side of each rectangle. Roll up tightly to make 2 long rolls, finishing with the seam underneath.
  15. Cut
  16. Using a large, serrated knife (such as a bread knife), carefully cut each roll into 4 to make a total of 8 rolls.
  17. Repeat this process twice more with the remaining filo sheets and pork mixture, until you have made 24 Pulled Pork Rolls.
  18. Transfer the Pulled Pork Rolls onto the 2 lined baking trays, placing seam side down. You may find using a palette knife or fish slice helps you pick them up.
  19. Brush all over with the remaining beaten egg and sprinkle with a few sesame seeds.
  20. Bake in the preheated oven for 8 - 10 minutes until crisp and light golden brown. Serve hot or cold with BBQ sauce, tomato ketchup or other accompaniments of your choice.
