Pulled pork

Pulled pork is a method of preparing pork, in which the meat is seasoned, often with a dry rub, slow-cooked, and then shredded or "pulled" into strands. This cooking technique is popular in American cuisine, particularly in the Southern United States, where it is often served as a filling in sandwiches, known as pulled pork sandwiches. The slow cooking process, typically using a barbecue smoker, results in tender, flavorful meat that easily separates into individual fibers. In Hebrew, pulled pork is known as חזיר משולשל (hazir meshulashal). In Spanish, it is called cerdo deshebrado, and in French, it is referred to as porc effiloché. The dish is a staple in barbecue culture and is often accompanied by various sauces, such as barbecue sauce, vinegar-based sauces, or mayonnaise-based sauces, depending on regional preferences.
