Recipe: Pulled Pork Buns with Apple Slaw (Braising Method)

Commonly, pulled pork or beef is made either by slow cooking in the oven or braising over the stove.  Slow and low is the way to go. 

So, for this recipe, I used pork shoulder and braised it on low heat for 2 hours. By the time you are done, there will only be a few tablespoonfuls of braising liquid left. Allow the pork to cool and then shred. I made some apple slaw and barbecue sauce to go with the pulled pork buns and it was delish! Will definitely be making this again.

1/2 tsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
