Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Season the pork shoulder with salt and pepper, then place it in a roasting pan. Cover the pan with foil and roast the pork in the oven for 4 hours, or until it's tender and falls apart easily with a fork.

  2. Once the pork is cooked, let it cool slightly before using two forks to shred the meat into bite-sized pieces. Toss the shredded pork with BBQ sauce until it's evenly coated.

  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the romaine lettuce, cherry tomatoes, red onion, corn, and cilantro. Toss the salad ingredients together until they are well mixed.

  4. To assemble the salad, divide the salad mixture onto plates and top each serving with a generous portion of the pulled pork.

  5. Garnish the salads with sliced avocado and drizzle ranch dressing over the top.

  6. Serve the Pulled Pork Salad immediately and enjoy the delicious contrast of flavors and textures.
