Pinoy Pulled Pork – Pinoy Food Recipe
Filipino Roast Pork
Serves 6.
3 lb bone-in Boston butt or pork shoulder
Salt and pepper
2 tbsp cooking oil
2/3 c white distilled vinegar
1/3 c soy sauce
5 cloves garlic — peeled and smashed (left whole)
5 whole cardomom pods
2 bay leaves
1 1/2-inch fresh ginger — peeled and thinly sliced
1 tbsp fresh orange zest
1 medium yellow onion — peel, quartered, and cut into 1/4 rings
2 tbsp sugar
Procedure:
Heat oven to 325F. Generously season the roast with salt and pepper.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, then brown roast on all sides. Move roast to a plate and pour excess oil out of pot.
Deglaze the pot with the soy sauce and vinegar, then add a cup of water. Add garlic, cardomom, bay, ginger and orange zest. Return the roast to the pot and add 1/4 of onions.
Bring back to a boil, then cover and place Dutch oven in the center of the oven. Simmer for 1 hour then turn roast over. Cook another hour and turn over again. Cook 1/2 hour then add remaining onions. Cook 1/2 hour longer.
Add sugar to broth and shred roast using a pair or forks in the pot. Taste and adjust seasonings (In addition to salt, I ended up adding about another 1 1/2 tablespoons of vinegar and soy sauce.
