Other Ingredient
Number of People 4
List of Ingredients 2 T olive oil
2 1/2 pounds boneless pork shoulder
coarse salt and pepper
1 yellow onion, diced small
3 cloves garlic
1 celery stalk, diced small
3/4 tsp fennel seeds
1/2 c dry wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon
1 can (28 oz) crushed tomatoes
4 c couscous (I used rice) for serving
Description In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Season pork with salt and pepper and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Transfer pork to a slow cooker. Reduce heat to medium and add onion, garlic, celery, and fennel seeds to pan; cook until onion is softened, about 4 minutes.

Add wine and cook, scraping up browned bits with a wooden spoon, until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add to slow cooker along with tomatoes. Cover and cook on high until pork is very tender, 4 hours (or 8 hours on low).

Transfer pork to a cutting board. With two forks, shred meat into bite-size pieces, discarding any large pieces of fat. Skim fat off sauce and discard. Return shredded pork to slow cooker and stir to combine.
