Summer is here, the grill is going, and the smell of food is in the air. What better summer favorite than the pulled pork sandwich but Keto style!

This recipe calls for the slow cooker, but if you’re like me, summer calls for slow cook on the barbie!

So enough of the salivating, time to roll up the sleeves and get to to cooking, enjoy the recipe and have your taste buds leave a comment!

-Cheers



Instructions

  1. Grind the spices and cacao nibs in a food processor or a coffee grinder. Mix ground spices with the olive oil and spread all over the surface of the pork.
  2. Salt the seasoned meat and put it in a slow cooker. Cook for five hours on low heat or four on medium heat.
  3. Remove the pork from the slow cooker and pull the meat apart using two forks. Serve with sliced red onion, sliced pickes, lettuce, oopsie bread and a hearty dollop of mayonnaise and a grated slaw at the side.

Keto bread

  1. Preheat oven to 300° F (150° C).
  2. Separate the eggs; put the egg whites in one bowl and the yolks in another.
  3. Whip egg whites together with salt until very stiff. You should be able to turn the bowl over without the egg whites moving.
  4. Mix the egg yolks and the cream cheese well. To make the oopsie more bread-like, add in the optional psyllium seed husk and baking powder.
  5. Gently fold the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture— try to keep the air in the egg whites.
  6. Put eight dollops on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the oven for about 20-25 minutes until they turn golden.
  7. Allow Keto bread to cool on a rack. They can be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days or in the freezer. Thaw at room temperature or in a toaster.



Grated slaw

  1. Rinse and peel the vegetables. You don’t need to peel the apple, just core it. Grate everything into rough pieces by hand or in a machine. Put in a bowl.
  2. Add all other ingredients and mix. Season to taste.
