Method
-
Preheat the oven to 150c.
-
Using a bread knife, score the pork shoulder in a criss-cross fashion at 1cm intervals. Place in an oven tray, skin side up.
-
Combine the sugar, spices and vinegar to form a paste and rub all over the meat.
-
Pour the cola around the outside of the pork and cover with a double layer of foil. Cook in the oven for a minimum of 4 hours, or until the meat falls off the bone.
-
Remove from the oven once the meat is soft and falling off the bone.
-
Leave to cool a little and then remove the skin. Chop the skin finely and leave to one side.
-
Shred the pork using two forks, discarding any fatty bits.
-
Place the pot back on the stove and reduce the remaining liquid to a syrup.
-
Place the pulled pork back into the pot and mix well. Mix the crispy skin back in and garnish with fresh mint if desired.
-
For the coleslaw, combine all of the vegetables in a bowl with the seasoning and lemon juice and leave to sit for 10 minutes until the mixture softens a little. Then stir in the crème fraîche and herbs.
-
For the mayo, place all of the ingredients in a jar and use a stick blender to whizz together until the mixture thickens.
-
Serve the pork in brioche buns, with the coleslaw, mayo and some and pickled onions if desired.
