Pulled pork oven roast then slow cook?

[user1473069303]

Hi,

When making pulled pork could I start it off in the oven to get a crust and then finish it off in the slow cooker? It would be the best of both worlds - has anyone tried it?

Many thanks!

I do the reverse (as advised by Nigella)

I'll take a look. Thanks!

I slow cook first tben pop in the oven for 20 mins to brown.

Sounds like a plan, thanks!

Remove rind and slow cook for as long as possible then pour over your preferred glaze - honey or barbecue and pop in the oven for half an hourish.
I do exactly the same with ham and it falls apart just like pulled pork.

Why oh why have I never thought of finishing in the oven. Sounds great.

I only ever do it in the oven, not slow cook. Just low heat for 8 hours. Throw in a rice pudding or a casserole at the same time if you're feeling in a batch cooking mood?

Thanks for the tips! I might try 100% oven cooking next time.

I used the Skint Dad recipe (I'm not him) for the slow cooker, then reduced the sauce a little bit, mixed it back in with the shredded meat, spread it out over a foiled-lined grill pan and then put it under the grill. The marinade is very tasty!

foil-lined, sorry
