PULLED PORK PIE RECIPE

Right, I've been asked a few times now for my Pulled Pork Pie recipe.

It ain't even worth me taking credit for, it's that easy!

Get a nice big piece of roast pork:

 It doesn't really matter what cut it is.

Chuck it in one of these:

(ignore all the veges in the picture!)

Then pour two of these over the meat:

Then put the lid on and turn the slow cooker (crock pot) on high, and leave it to cook for at least 10 hours.

Then pull out the bones, shred the meat up with a couple of forks, then thicken it with some cornflour which has been mixed with water.

Line a baking dish with pastry, OR NOT, up to you, then put mashed potato on the top.  

***I find it is even tastier if you put the meat mixture in the fridge for a couple of days then make your pie.

Hope some of you give it a go, it is delicious.

Stew came home last night with fresh fruit, as he does 2-3 times a week.
Only, I was like, what the hell ?

Deformed nectarines and peaches?

ABOVE:  Apparently NOT!  They are called 'FLATTOS', and are grown in Central Otago deliberately like that.

I'm like... they look like REJECTS!  Funky.  I suppose they taste the same as 'normal' shaped ones!

Today?  I've got a couple of jobs to do in town, then I am visiting a friend after lunch.  She is interested in getting some of my mug rugs, (fabric coasters), so I'm taking some samples out to show her.

Then I will come home and deal to the windowsills.  *sigh*

ONWARD...

11.43 am:  and it's been a fairly quiet morning.  I've done some washing and cleaning.  Coco vomited in the hallway in FOUR places... so had to clean the carpet...waiting for it to dry.

I've made a pie for my ill girlfriend, taking that out to her later.

Stinkin' hot day again.

There's some dick in a very big truck backing down my road.... cos he can't turn around at the end.  It clearly states at the beginning of our road, ya can't turn around at the end if you are driving a big truck.  What a dick.  edit: OK OK, I'm being mean.  He can't exactly deliver the huge amount of shit he's got on his truck any other way I guess!  So, let's hope he's really good at backing up.

I've found some 2nd hand uniform we need for Brylee on Facebook... so will be picking those items up this afternoon/evening.  Saving about $60.  SCORE.

Uniform items bought... and I saved $70 at the end of the day.  Having spent almost $300 at the start of the year on (new):  1 shirt and skirt for Brylee, and 2 shirts and shorts for Griffin... I'm rather pleased I could get the other two items for more than half price!

Thank god this is the last year I EVER EVER EVER have to buy bloody school uniforms!  Can you believe I have had to buy uniforms for over 30 years now!   I hate to think how much we have spent on JUST uniforms.  *shudder*

9.50 pm:  And that's a wrap for the day.  Coronation Street is on.... gotta concentrate on that.  lol
