Slow-Cooked Pulled Pork Wraps
I'm putting this recipe up today for one reason - it is the ULTIMATE Sunday night meal and you're going to have ALL of tomorrow to let the pork slow-cook.
So long as you don't add loads of sweet sauces, this is a pretty darn healthy meal!
Ingredients:
- 1.5kg of pork - you need to choose a suitable slow-cooking cut. Here I have used pork scotch because there was very little visible fat but you can get much cheaper cuts. Ask your butcher.
- 3L of low-salt beef stock.
- 1x cup of apple juice.
- 8x garlic cloves, crushed.
- 5 whole cloves.
- 2 teaspoons each of smoked paprika, oregano leaves, crushed black peppercorns, ground cumin and ground coriander.
- Wraps - anything but white; here I chose barley.
- Can of black beans, drained.
- 1-2x avocados, mashed.
- Fresh bunch of coriander.

Bloke Can Cook is an all encompassing, easy-read book on nutrition for blokes. After becoming annoyed at the media-driven, public fixation with diets, Jase felt it was time to preach what he personally practices.
This eBook outlines the basic position of men's health in the current time - we're fat, stressed and increasingly victim to many preventable, lifestyle illnesses. And rather than prescribing you a diet of fresh air and cabbage soup, Jase identifies the practical strategies you can take NOW to start feeling better - both mentally and physically.
Buy this book if you are a bloke that cares a little about how you look and feel. Buy this book if you don't want to take your health for granted any longer. Buy this book if you've finally realised that not being able to see your penis anymore due to a protruding gut is neither healthy nor manly.
- Cut your pork down into chunks about half a fist in size. Remove any visible fat.
- Put pork into slow-cooker on low along with stock, apple juice, garlic, cloves and all of the spices. Cook for 8 hours or until pork is as tender as you wish.
- Remove cooked pork shaking excess liquid off. Use two forks to gently shred your pork.
- Over a high heat skillet, brown your shredded pork in batches. Cook to your liking.
- Pour a small amount of the liquid in the slow-cooker back on top of your now browned, shredded meat to flavour. Be mindful that this is adding calories back in so do not over-do it . Further, adding too much liquid will make your wraps soggy.
- Make up your wraps with avocado, black beans, your shredded pork and some fresh coriander. YUM!!
