1.5kg pork shoulder, fat trimmed (if using an oven, leave fat on)
freshly ground black pepper
5 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons all spice
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons chilli fakes or powder
1/2 cup tamari or soy sauce
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup Chicken or Beef Stock
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1/4 cup rice malt syrup
zest and juice of 1 orange
1 iceberg lettuce, separated into “cups” to serve
Place pork in the base of slow cooker insert. Combine remaining ingredients (except for lettuce) and pour over pork. Massage the meat to ensure it’s covered in the sauce. Cover and cook on low for hours or high for 5 hours, or until pork pulls away from the bone.
Pull apart the iceberg lettuce into large “cup-like” pieces. Remove pork from the slow cooker and shred using two forks. Serve in the lettuce cups. (Drizzle excess sauce over the top).
Preheat oven to 180°C. Place pork, rind-side up, in a deep roasting pan. Slice 2cm deep cuts all over pork rind. Rub the Chinese marinade into the cuts and the underside of pork shoulder ensuring the marinade gets right into the grooves. Place pork in the oven and roast for 30 minutes or until the rind starts to crackle.
Reduce oven to 160°C. Cover pork with 2 layers of foil. Roast for 3-4 hours. Baste the meat every hour. The pork will be ready when it falls away from the bone when pulled with a fork.
