Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make pulled pork at home? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Take boneless pork; the best parts for drying are fillet, loin or neck. Choose lean meat. Salt must be non-iodized. For spices, I took ground black pepper, sweet paprika and smoked paprika. In general, absolutely any spices will do. You will also need a piece of gauze and a piece of twine.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the meat well under running water and then dry well with paper towels. Excessive moisture is not needed — the meat should be dry. Rub the meat with salt on all sides. Place it in an enamel or glass container. It is better not to use a metal one — the meat may oxidize.

Step 3

Step 3
Place a flat plate on top and place some weight on it. Place the pan with meat in the refrigerator for three days.

Step 4

Step 4
Turn the piece of meat over every day to ensure it is evenly salted. Liquid will form at the bottom of the pan — this is normal.

Step 5

Step 5
After three days, remove the meat and pat it very thoroughly with paper towels to remove any remaining brine. If you like your meat not too salty, you can rinse it first with water and then dry it with paper towels.

Step 6

Step 6
Rub the piece of meat thoroughly with pepper and spices. You can choose any spices to suit your taste.

Step 7

Step 7
Wrap the meat in a piece of gauze folded in three layers. Tie it with twine, twine or thick thread.

Step 8

Step 8
Hang the meat in a cool, ventilated area for 5-7 days. I dried the meat on the balcony. During this time, it should dry well and be saturated with the aromas of spices and seasonings. Cut the finished dried pork meat in salt and spices into pieces and serve. Bon appetit!
