(Yield approximately 16 servings. 1 serving = 3 oz.)

Ingredients

• 5 pounds Boneless Pork Shoulder, visible fat trimmed and removed
• 1 Sweet Onion, sliced
• 3 Garlic Cloves, roughly chopped
• ½ tablespoon Sea Salt
• ½ tablespoon Black Pepper
• 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
• ½ teaspoon Mustard Powder
• 1 tablespoon Brown Sugar
• ½ tablespoon Olive Oil
• 1 ½ cups Chicken or Vegetable Stock, reduced sodium

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325F. Ensure oven rack is placed in lower-middle of the oven.
2. Trim visible fat on the outside of the pork and discard. Cut the pork into large chunks, about the size of a fist. 
3. Combine sea salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, mustard powder and brown sugar in a small bowl. Sprinkle the seasoning blend over the pork and rub into pork so it is evenly coated on all sides.
4. Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat (or use any oven-safe pot). Sear the pork on all sides.
5. Add onion slices and garlic cloves.
6. Pour cooking stock over top of the pork. Pork should be a little over halfway submerged, with some of the pork showing above the liquid.
7. Bring liquid to a simmer. Once simmering, cover and transfer the whole pot to the oven.
8. Cook about 3 hours, until it can easily be pierced with a fork and easily falls apart. Check on the pork every half hour, beginning after the first two hours of cooking. Turn pork once halfway through cooking.
9. Once finished cooking, lift pork out of the liquid and place into a large bowl. 
10. When cool enough to handle, shred with your fingers or using two forks being mindful to remove any large pieces of fat.
11. If desired, skim onions and garlic from the cooking liquid, chop and add to pulled pork.
12. Add 2-3 tablespoons of cooking liquid if the pork seems dry.

(Yield 10-12, 8” crepes servings, 1 serving = 1 crepe)

Ingredients

• ½ cup Whole Wheat Flour
• ½ cup All-Purpose Flour
• 2 Eggs
• ½ cup Water
• ¾ cup Reduced Fat Milk
• 3 tablespoons Unsalted Butter, melted
• ¼ teaspoon Sea Salt

Instructions

1. In a medium-sized bowl, combine whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour and sea salt. 
2. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, milk and water until well combined. 
3. Add the flour mixture and melted butter to the egg mixture and whisk until batter is smooth with no lumps.
4. Cover the batter and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, allowing air bubbles to settle. Batter will keep in the refrigerator up to two days.
5. After the batter has been allowed to settle, heat a small non-stick skillet over medium heat and spritz with olive oil to coat. When skillet is hot, pour 1/3 cup of batter onto center. Swirl the pan quickly to spread the batter evenly. Cook for 30 seconds, flip and cook for an additional 10 seconds. 
6. Lay the cooked crepes flat and unstacked for quick cooling. Once cooled crepes can be stacked and placed in a sealed plastic bag in the refrigerator for several days or stored in the freezer for up to two months. 
7. Fill each crepe with 3 oz of braised pork and 2 oz of BBQ sauce, fold in half and enjoy!
