Smoked Pulled Pork and Gravy

































Psalm 63:1


My Soul Thirsts for You


A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah.


    [1] O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you;

        my soul thirsts for you;

    my flesh faints for you,

        as in a dry and weary land where there is no water.


 

 

My husband and I smoked a pork butt to put in the freezer and to share with family.

I wanted to create a southern style dish from the smoked pulled pork that would go with fresh peas, mixed greens, creamed corn and mashed potatoes.

So I decided on meat and gravy, good old stand by, but I was skeptical about the gravy having a smoked flavor. Well! It was delicious!



An ej original recipe!!


2 c Smoked Pulled Pork 

1 Leek, sliced

1 small Onion, chopped 

1 T olive oil

2 t Roasted garlic, mashed 

Cracked Black pepper, to taste

1 T Beef base seasoning (this is salty so taste ans adjust if necessary)

1-1/2 c water

Cornstarch slurry for thickening 



In a large skillet, add oil, heat to medium.

Add onions, garlic, black pepper and leeks.

Sauté until tender about 3 minutes.

Add beef base, and pork.

Add the water and cook 3 minutes, add slurry, cook until gravy thickens.

Serve on mashed potatoes or sticky rice.
