it seems "pulled" is taking over the world!

... because the profit margins are high (as suggested above)

And you don't have to make it fresh. It's one of those things that tastes good if not better the next day (and possibly the next). Minimum prep.

it reminds me of stuff my mum used to do when we were little for economising .... pressure cookers - does anyone have those anymore? Anyway - I'm in absolutely no position to comment until there's a pulled aubergine/portabello stack/risotto etc *yawn* incarnation.

Yep. We give it an hour on high heat and leave it in the oven all night on lowest setting.

You can feed almost 20 people for £20.

Isn't 'pulled' no different from any form of any type of cooked food? i.e. If it's cooked well, it's nice. Just so happens 'pulled' is the current fashion?

 

[discobastard]

You could say much the same about shredded crispy duck. Or steak tartare. It describes how it's served.

 

[discobastard]

If it tastes like shit it doesn't matter whether you slice it or shred it or spread it.

For all my veggie friends: pulled QUORN.

Pulled dhal??

 

[madolesance]

I did pulled pork about 8 years ago! I so missed the gravy boat on that one.

 

[ViolentPanda]

'Pulled' is basically shredded meat. It's just 'pop up' speak.

Back when I was a yout', "pulled pork" meant something very different!

 

[BigMoaner]

what actually is pulled meat?

serious question

it's vibrant and you eat it when you pop up at a creative hub

 

[Greebo]

I'm vegetarian - hence my pulled ignorance. I tend just to ignore meaty things but it seems "pulled" is taking over the world!

"Pulled" meat also tends to be sweeter because of the amount of fruit juice, molasses etc used on it. I can seldom have it (because the marinade etc often includes onion), and whenever I have, it's been unpleasantly sweet.

Bring back savoury savouries!

 

[Maharani]

I'm sure there's another thread for this but...pork wise I'd just add salt, fennel and corriander seed and marinade for a couple of hours then slow roast for an age.

Greebo, dinner?

A friend of mine was pulled and porked recently. Said she enjoyed it.
