How to cook deliciously - Bourbon Mango Pulled Pork

1. Stage

Peel mangos and remove the pits. Place the pits into a slow cooker, then roughly chop the mango and set aside. Place pork shoulder into the slow cooker and season with pepper, salt, and 1 teaspoon chipotle powder. Pour in balsamic vinegar and water.

2. Stage

Cover and cook on Low until the meat is very tender, 5 to 8 hours. Once done, drain the pork, discarding the cooking liquid and mango pits, and shred with two forks.

3. Stage

While pork is cooking, purée chopped mango in a blender until smooth, then pour into a saucepan along with honey, remaining chipotle powder, and whiskey. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring frequently, until mango has reduced and darkened slightly, about 10 minutes. Stir in barbecue sauce and remove from the heat.

4. Stage

Return shredded pork to the slow cooker and stir in mango barbecue sauce. Cover and cook on High until pork absorbs the barbecue sauce, 1 to 2 hours.
