The recipe called for a bone in pork shoulder. I picked up a 3lb boneless Duroc shoulder and added a couple of ham hocks for flavor and collagen as the marinade becomes the sauce and it is delicious. I transferred the ham hocks to the bean pot after braising was completed then shredded the meat in the beans before discarding the bones. The flavor combo in the sandwich is fantastic - Toasted Baguette/ garlic aioli/ cilantro/ pickled jalapeno/ braised pork/ sauteed onions/ more cilantro/ romaine lettuce/ more garlic aioli. This was a huge hit with the family, completely worth the effort, and I'll definitely be doing it again. |
These are the kind of sandwiches I love, crockpot meat based. This must have been excellent and I will be shopping for a picnic shoulder this week.
