Jamie Oliver Pulled Pork Recipe

Jamie Oliver's pulled pork combines tender pork shoulder with rich, flavorful spices, and it's perfect for any occasion.
Start by preheating your oven to high heat and scoring the pork skin to let all those delicious flavors seep in.
Make sure to generously season the pork with sea salt, black pepper, and a bit of paprika for a smoky kick.
Roast it until it's beautifully tender and falls apart at the touch—trust me, your patience will be rewarded.
