PLEASINGLY EASY PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F, rack 1 rung below center.
• Bring pork to room temperature, about 30 minutes, and pat dry.
• Combine paprika, salt, garlic, onion, oregano or marjoram and pepper in a bowl, then coat meat evenly, rubbing mixture into meat.
• Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat with oil, 3 turns of the pan. When oil ripples and smokes, add the meat and brown on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes total. Add beer, wine or cider and reduce a minute or so, then add stock. Cover and place in oven. Cook 3 hours until very tender, then shred meat with tines of 2 forks, removing larger pieces of fat or connective tissue as you work. Stir meat and drippings together with Barbecue Sauce, if using.
• Heat oil in medium saucepot or skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add onions, chile, garlic, salt and pepper, then soften 5 to 6 minutes. Add vinegar and reduce 1 to 2 minutes, then add ketchup or sauce, Worcestershire, brown sugar and hot sauce. Simmer over low heat for flavors to combine. Add to pork and drippings and combine.
