How to Make

  • Step 1: Season pork with salt and pepper.

  • Step 2: Put in a large pot, crockpot, or slow cooker.

  • Step 3: Add pineapple juice, coconut water, and crushed garlic. Cover and turn heat to medium/low.

  • Step 4: Cook several hours until pork is cooked through.

  • Step 5: Remove meat from liquid (reserving liquid for the barbeque sauce), allow to rest about 10 minutes on a cutting board.

  • Step 6: Using two forks, shred the meat and set aside.

  • Step 7: In a saucepan, sweat oil and garlic in oil for about 2 minutes.

  • Step 8: Add cinnamon and cumin, stirring until onions and garlic are covered being sure to not allow cinnamon to burn.

  • Step 9: Quickly add tomato sauce and tomato paste, stirring until blended and tomato paste is incorporated.

  • Step 10: Add mangoes and syrup, liquid smoke, cooking juices from pulled pork, and the chili paste.

  • Step 11: Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium, and cook about 5 minutes.

  • Step 12: Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

  • Step 13: Using a blender or food processor, blend until smooth.

  • Step 14: Return to saucepan and add pulled pork, cooking until pork is warmed.

  • Step 15: Serve in hamburger buns or ciabatta rolls and top with cheese or onions, if desired.

  • Step 16: Alternatively, do not add pork back into the barbeque sauce and instead put undressed pork directly onto buns and top liberally with barbeque sauce and serve warm.
