Pulled Pork MEAT Question
i have a BBQ pineapple pulled pork recipe I was all excited to try until I got to the store and saw what pork shoulder looks like. Yikes. (Sorry I'm not a big meat eater!) Anyway, it had what appeared to be pig skin still on half of it. Is that normal? Do I trim that off before putting in the crock pot or what?
Signed,
Quasi-vegetarian
TIA FOR THE HELP!

Re: Pulled Pork MEAT Question
Thank you.
My next dumb question - - so, if i don't take it off, then after it cooks am I shredding it like the rest of it? Or do i discard it?
Again, thanks.
You can trim it off or keep it on. It won't shred like the rest of the meat after its cooked so I usually discard it, however, some people eat it.
Also, you don't have to use shoulder meat. You could use a leaner cut like a pork loin.
Thank you!
What do you recommend? Like pork butt or something?
TIA!
I always call them pork roasts. They are like $1.99 to $2.99 I am not sure the real name. Maybe someone else will know. They are just in the pork section of safeway. I know that doesn't help at all. When I get home I am sure my husband will know and I will post.
That's it. I couldn't remember the name. Pork Loin Roast
pork butt is a humungous PITA to trim the fat off of IMO so I would use something less fatty, but I think it is more traditional for pulled pork for sure.
