Apple Cider Pork Shoulder
Fall is here (allegedly), which means it’s time to bust out the pumpkin spices, the halloween costumes and the apple ciders. Apple cider is traditionally unfiltered and unsweetened, unlike its counterpart apple juice, and it is non-alcoholic, unlike the adult drink “hard cider.” Hot apple cider is a warming beverage after a cold day, often infused with cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. But here’s one thing most people don’t associate with apple cider: it makes a killer pork dish.
This is a sweet, tangy dish that requires very little work on your end. The hardest part is the waiting. Only seven ingredients make this an easy shopping trip, and everything goes together in the same pot. First, season the pork with our Pork Perfect seasoning. Then, sear the chunks in the pot on high heat until brown. Then throw everything else in the pot and let it simmer for a few hours. The result is a delicious apple pork that literally falls apart. It goes great on sliders, it tastes amazing next to mashed potatoes, and it is perfect all on its own.
