A fattier cut from a naturally raised animal is perfectly paleo, not to mention delicious, from time to time. Make this at least a day ahead to experience the full decadence!
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  • 3 # pastured pork shoulder
  • 1 large sweet onion, chopped
  • ½ small pineapple, cored, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 2 large, ripe red tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup dry white wine
  • 1 - 2 cups homemade chicken broth
Instructions
  1. Heat oil in Dutch Oven over medium high
  2. Place pork in oven and brown for two minutes on each side
  3. Remove pork from oven and place on plate, covered
  4. Add onion to oven and saute five minutes
  5. Add pineapple, tomatoes and pork
  6. Pour in wine and broth (use more if you prefer more liquid, less if more of a stew)
  7. Cover and bring to simmer
  8. Let simmer for two hours
  9. Remove from heat, let cool completely and refrigerate overnight
  10. The next day, place the oven over a medium flame and cook one more hour; pork will easily pull apart with two forks
  11. Shred all pork with two forks and serve on a bed of your favorite greens to enjoy the jus
