How do I make it?
Barbecue sauce
- Combine all your ingredients in a small pot, and whisk them to incorporate together.
- Put the pot on the stove over medium heat, and wait for the sauce to start bubbling, stirring occasionally.
- Let it bubble for about a minute (while stirring a little bit), and then pull it off the heat and set aside, or refrigerate if making ahead.
Pulled pork
- Preheat the oven to 150C, and then combine all the dry ingredients for your pork rub, making sure you mix the ingredients well so that everything is evenly distributed.
- Now rub down your pork. There's a possibility you'll have more rub than you need depending on how big your pork shoulder is, but that's ok.
- Put rubbed-down pork in a baking dish and pour in the beer. Cover with foil and place in the oven. Every hour after the first couple hours you can go in and baste it. Depending on your oven and the size of your shoulder it'll take 5-7 hours.
- Remove it out of the oven and let it cool before you start pulling it apart with a fork.
- Mix the pulled pork with enough sauce (reheated if made ahead) to coat to your liking.
Nachos
- Preheat the oven to 180C, then arrange a thick layer of tortilla or corn chips on a foil and baking paper wrapped baking tray.
- Top nachos with pork, goat cheese, red onion, beans, cheddar cheese, spring onion and chilli.
- Cook in oven for 20-30 minutes or until the cheese is fully melted and starting to crisp. Serve with sour cream and guacamole if desired.
