Roast Pork

Rice Base

Toppings

Method

Prepare the Roast Pork

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

  2. 2

    Season the Pork

    In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork shoulder.

  3. 3

    Roast the Pork

    Place the seasoned pork shoulder in a roasting pan. Drizzle apple cider vinegar and honey over the top. Cover with foil and roast for 3 hours, or until the pork is tender and can be easily shredded.

  4. 4

    Shred the Pork

    Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes. Shred the pork using two forks.

Prepare the Rice

  1. 5

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium saucepan, combine jasmine rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and water is absorbed. Fluff with a fork.

Assemble the Loco Bowl

  1. 6

    Prepare the Toppings

    While the pork and rice are cooking, prepare the toppings. Rinse the black beans, halve the cherry tomatoes, and dice the avocado. Chop the fresh cilantro.

  2. 7

    Build the Bowl

    In a bowl, layer the cooked rice at the bottom, followed by a generous portion of shredded roast pork. Top with corn, black beans, cherry tomatoes, diced avocado, and fresh cilantro.

  3. 8

    Finish with Lime

    Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top of the assembled loco bowl for added flavor.
