Pulled pork recipes start with the clean pure taste of Eagle Wood Farms pork.





Pulled pork recipes start with the cooking process. The "barbecue" cooking technique is considered by many to have been developed by native peoples of the Caribbean and South America. Around the 15th century, Spanish explorers recorded natives roasting, drying, and smoking meats on a green wooden framework over a very small bed of coals, called a barbricot, which the Spaniards pronounced barbacoa. Cooking over a fire was not new. But it was the very low heat and the slowness of the process that tenderized the meat that set this method apart from history. European settlers quickly adopted this method of slow cooking, discovering hogs made great barbecue.

Pulled pork recipes today include slow cooking in an oven, grill/grill smoker, crock pot, and pressure cooker. We will discuss crock pot recipes due to inherent simplicity.

The best pork cuts are come the pigs front chest area called the shoulder butt and picnic shoulder. Fat content is higher adding taste and the muscle fibers tougher creating the string like texture of the final dish.

Pulled pork recipes require a “sauce”. There are fabulous ones available at every local specialty store and we have included a few recipes.
