Ingredients

1.5 kg Pork shoulder
90 g Chipotle paste x1 jar
4 tbsp Honey
2 tbsp Ketchup
2 tbsp Balsamic vinegar

Metric - Imperial

Instructions

Set your slow cooker to LOW.
Mix the chipotle paste, honey, ketchup and balsamic vinegar.
If there is a layer of skin on the pork, remove this carefully with a sharp knife, then rub the marinade onto the pork.
Place in the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 12 hours.
Once finished, drain all of the juices from the slow cooker and remove the fat. Shred the pork with two forks into bite-sized chunks.
Add the juices back into the meat and mix.

Notes

Cooking time: If you have less time you could cook on HIGH. It will be delicious but it won’t be as meltingly tender as the slower cooked version. It should take around 6–7 hours on HIGH.
