Categories     Beef

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon(s) extra-virgin olive oil
3 large onions, thinly sliced
1/3 cup(s) raw cane sugar, such as Demerara or turbinado (see Notes)
4 clove(s) garlic, minced
1 teaspoon(s) dried oregano
1 teaspoon(s) freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
1/3 cup(s) cider vinegar
1 cup(s) chili sauce, such as Heinz
1 1/2 teaspoon(s) minced chipotle chile in adobo sauce (see Notes)
3 pound(s) boneless pork shoulder or blade (butt) roast, trimmed

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften, 3 to 6 minutes. Add sugar and continue to cook, stirring constantly, until the onions are golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes more. Add garlic, oregano, pepper, and salt and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add vinegar and bring to a boil. Cook until mostly evaporated, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Remove from the heat and stir in chili sauce and chipotle to taste. Place pork in a 4-quart (or larger) slow cooker and cover with the sauce. Cover and cook until the pork is almost falling apart, about 4 hours on High or 8 hours on Low. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and shred using two forks. Pour sauce into fat separator to discard fat. Stir back into the sauce.
