THMD3: Easy BBQ Pulled Pork

Sharing is caring!

Skinnymixer’s Easy BBQ Pulled Pork features in the FAST section of the cookbook The Healthy Mix Dinners 3. 

When I first developed this Easy BBQ Pulled Pork recipe I was SO excited. It is truly a game changer!

You can be enjoying pulled pork in under 20 minutes and it uses a leaner cut of pork to help reduce the calories. I make this as sliders for the kids and have mine with slaw in a bowl. It also makes an epic pizza topping or topping for jacket potatoes!

If you aren’t a lover of pork (like Mez) it is equally delicious using the Chicken variation of chicken thighs.

The Easy BBQ Pulled Pork is a cookbook exclusive recipe…

Freezer Prep Meal Plan Info – How to Make as a Dump Bag

This recipe features in the Freezer Prep Meal Plan located in the presale bonus located in the ‘Meal Plan Collection’ download and has a matching print-at-home label. 

To make as a ‘dump bag’ we follow the Slow Cooker variation for the recipe and do the following.

1. Follow the Slow Cooker variation – Use 2kg pork shoulder instead of pork fillets. The pork shoulder is more suitable to slow cooker, for this dump bag it is much easier to keep your meat separate as all you do is season and brown it before slow cooking. We will make double the sauce only component ready to dump into the pulled pork at the end of cooking.
2. To make the sauce – Double everything and omit pork. Cook the recipe including the cornflour mixture step and skip the meat shredding step. 
3. Chill the sauce – you need to chill the sauce before adding into the dump bag.
4. Attach label to a snaplock bag or desired container. The labels are print-at-home and are 6 labels to an A4 page.
5. Add sauce in a snaplock bag or desired container. Try to remove as much air as possible to avoid freezer burn & Freeze your ‘dump bag’. You can freeze your piece of pork separately.
6. DEFROST TO USE: It is best to defrost the day before in the fridge as you don’t want to add frozen food to the slow cooker.  
7. Season pork, brown and place in the slow cooker. Cook for 8-10 hr on low. The pork will create its own juices.
8. Pull the pork, remove some of the juices if you wish and stir through “dump” bag of sauce. Allow sauce to heat through.

Please note – this is for use with a slow cooker and not the TM6 slow cooker function. To use the slow cooker function in the Thermomix, you need the recipe to be specifically created with a maximum 800g of meat and a minimum amount of liquid.

We double the recipe for recipes that will potentially dry out in a large slow cooker, if you don’t want to double the recipe and have a smaller slow cooker then you are welcome to use your best judgement and not double.
