PULLED PORK WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS



Pulled Pork with Caramelized Onions image

From EatingWell.com Traditional pulled pork is barbecued, which gives it a smoky flavor. But the slow cooker happens to be the absolute easiest way to cook pulled pork - and you can get a hint of smoke by adding chipotle chile. Serve the pulled pork with potato salad, collard greens, and grits, or make it into a sandwich and serve it on a bun with coleslaw.

SAVORY TOMATO-FREE PULLED PORK PIZZA WITH CARAMELIZED ONIONS AND



Savory Tomato-Free Pulled Pork Pizza With Caramelized Onions And image

I adore this savory, tomato free version of pizza! Serve with gravy poured over the top and a fork.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h

Yield 8 Slices, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 frozen bread dough, Loaf (or pizza dough)
2 lbs pork roast, pulled, or, thinly sliced
4 ounces ricotta cheese
3 ounces mozzarella cheese, shredded
3 ounces monterey jack cheese, shredded
3 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded (you can substitute swiss cheese with equally yummy results.)
1/3 cup onion, sliced
1/3 cup bell pepper, diced
mushroom (Optional. Add as many as you like, but 1/3 cup should do nicely.)
2 tablespoons olive oil
garlic powder, to taste
salt, to taste
1 cup pork gravy (Packets work great.)
cooking spray

Steps:

  • Place frozen bread dough in refrigerator the night before you make this to lessen wait time.
  • 5 hours before you are ready to eat, place the thawed bread dough on a pizza pan cooking spray (or greased, buttered, etc.). You can cover the dough with a towel, if you like, and set aside to rise. I like garlic, so, I sprinkle some garlic powder all over the loaf. Your choice.
  • 3 hours should be ample time for the dough to have risen to double its original size. Punch down the dough and spread it out in the pizza pan about 1 hour, should not be more than 1.5 hours. (Though temperature will affect rise time. Warmer means faster.).
  • Preheat oven to 375°F Place risen dough on pizza pan into oven for about 15 minutes. You want to want to remove it just as the crust starts to brown. When removed, raise the oven temperature to 400°F
  • While the crust is baking, place 2 tablespoons of Olive oil in a skillet on Medium to Medium-High, add the sliced onion and diced bell pepper to the skillet. You could add the mushrooms here too, if you like. Add garlic powder (or fresh garlic) and salt to taste. Cook for about 15 minutes, until onions become shiny and translucent.
  • If your cheese is not already shredded, you can do so while the vegetables are caramelizing. Once shredded, combine the cheeses to make a blend.
  • Prepare the gravy.
  • Allow the crust rest for about five minutes before assembling pizza. Don't forget to raise the temperature of the oven to 400°F.
  • Using a spoon or a spatula, spread the Ricotta cheese evenly onto the toppings area of the pizza.
  • Spread 1/2 gravy evenly over the Ricotta. Don't worry about sogginess, the crust.has been pre-baked and the Ricotta acts as a barrier protecting the crust. Do avoid letting the gravy pool up in the center (Pizza's weak point). Set aside remaining gravy to pour over pizza slices when served.
  • Spread the pork over the gravy.
  • Sprinkle the blend of shredded cheeses over the pork.
  • Scatter the onion and bell pepper (and mushrooms, if you are including them) atop the cheese.
  • Place the pizza in the oven and bake at 400F for 10 to 15 minutes (until crust is brown, cheese is thoroughly melted and some browning is beginning to occur on the toppings). Allow pizza to cool down for 5 minutes before slicing (makes for cleaner slices).
  • Serve with gravy poured over the top and a fork. Delicious.

Tips:

  • Choosing the right cut of pork is essential.Pork shoulder or pork butt is the best choice for pulled pork, as it has a good amount of fat that will help keep the meat moist and flavorful during the long cooking process.
  • Use a good quality dry rub.A dry rub is a mixture of spices and herbs that is rubbed onto the pork before cooking. This helps to flavor the meat and create a delicious crust.
  • Cook the pork low and slow.The best way to cook pulled pork is to cook it low and slow. This allows the meat to cook evenly and develop a tender, fall-apart texture.
  • Add liquid to the pot.Adding liquid to the pot while the pork is cooking helps to keep it moist and flavorful. You can use water, broth, or even beer.
  • Caramelize the onions.Caramelized onions are a great addition to pulled pork. They add a sweet and savory flavor that pairs perfectly with the pork.
  • Shred the pork.Once the pork is cooked, it's time to shred it. Use two forks to pull the meat apart into small pieces.
  • Serve the pulled pork.Pulled pork can be served on its own, or it can be used as a filling for tacos, sandwiches, or burritos.

Conclusion:

Pulled pork is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It's perfect for parties, picnics, or even a weeknight meal. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make pulled pork at home that is just as good as anything you would find at a restaurant.
