Sam's BBQ Pulled Pork

Sam's BBQ Pulled Pork

There's nothing better at Christmas time then good quality meat that has been slow cooked for six hours, so tender that it practically melts in your mouth.

 

Sam Canning has developed his own BBQ Pulled Pork recipe and would be happy to share it with your readers if you think it would be of interest. It's a rich, indulgent meal for Christmas and can be served with some side vegetables or placed in a brioche bun for a casual pulled pork slider.
