Bear

This recipe is taken from the American South, the home of pulled pork. The strong taste of the bear goes very well with the beer and the musty BBQ sauce. It is also possible to replace beer with, for example, vegetable broth for a slightly milder taste.

You can of course use a ready-made BBQ instead of using it in the recipe. That makes it all a little easier.

I promise that your guests will never ever taste a "pulled pork" like this!


Pulled Bear BBQ

Ingredients

    blank

    • 900 g bear roast

    • 1.5 tbsp brown sugar

    • 0.5 tbsp salt

    • 0.5 tbsp paprika powder

    • 0.5 tsp garlic powder

    • 0.5 tsp onion powder

    • 0.5 tsp ground cumin

    • Black pepper

    • 1 tbsp sunflower oil

    • 2 dl light beer

    blank

    • 2 tbsp tomato puree

    • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

    • 4 tbsp Dijon mustard

    • 2 tbsp brown sugar

    • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

    • 1 tbsp cognac or whiskey

    Instructions

    1. Set the oven to 150 degrees.

    2. Mix brown sugar, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin and ground pepper in a small bowl. 

    3. Rub the mixture into the roast (this can also be done the night before).

    4. Heat the oil in a cast iron pot and fry the bear roast on all sides. Keep in mind that the spices can burn easily, so don't fry for too long. 

    5. Pour the beer all over the meat and put the lid on. Transfer the pot to the oven.


    6. Wait until the meat reaches an internal temperature of around 95 degrees and it falls apart easily with a fork. The time it takes depends a lot on how big the meat is. Then take the pot out of the oven.

    7. Remove the steak from the pot and let it rest while you prepare the BBQ sauce.

    8. For the BBQ sauce: Put tomato puree, apple cider vinegar, mustard, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce in the pot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Lower the heat and let it simmer until it has thickened slightly, takes about 5 minutes.

    9. Pull the meat apart and mix with half of the BBQ sauce. Use the rest of the sauce for serving..
