Biscuit

Method

Biscuit

  1. 1

    Prepare the Biscuit Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Cut in the Butter

    Add the unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

  3. 3

    Add Milk

    Pour in the milk gradually, stirring until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.

  4. 4

    Shape and Bake the Biscuits

    Turn the dough onto a floured surface, knead gently a few times, then roll out to about 1-inch thick. Cut into rounds and place on a baking sheet. Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Pulled Pork

  1. 5

    Prepare the Pork

    Rub the pork shoulder with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt. Place in a slow cooker.

  2. 6

    Add Liquid

    Pour apple cider vinegar over the pork. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily shredded.

  3. 7

    Shred the Pork

    Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Mix in BBQ sauce to taste.

Coleslaw

  1. 8

    Mix the Vegetables

    In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage and carrots.

  2. 9

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 10

    Combine and Chill

    Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots. Toss to combine. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
