Preparation Steps
1
Preheat your oven to 320°F (160°C). Generously season the turkey (or pork) with salt, pepper, and sugar, rubbing it into the meat.
2
In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the meat on all sides for 3-4 minutes until browned.
3
Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Pour in the apple cider vinegar and chicken broth.
4
Transfer the meat to a baking dish, pour the BBQ sauce over it, and cover tightly with aluminum foil.
5
Bake for 4-5 hours, or until the meat is extremely tender and easily shreds with a fork.
6
Once the meat is cooked, remove it from the oven. Use two forks to shred the meat into smaller strands.
7
Return the shredded meat to the baking dish, toss with the BBQ sauce, and bake for another 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
8
Serve the pulled pork on fresh buns or as a main course. A side of sauerkraut pairs perfectly.
