Pulled Pork with Chipotle Sauce

Pulled Pork is a favourite with Brits and Mexicans alike and this version of slow cooked pork with a smoky spicy taste is just irresistible wherever you're from. Chipotle has a majestic taste and a distinctive smoky flavour. Chipotles are small peppers (often jalapeños), and usually have been dried by a smoking process. Yes, they are spicy, but if you use the right amount, it doesn't have to be burn-your-face-off spicy. Start with small amounts and add more to taste. The following recipe is for those gatherings with friends and loved ones who like to share succulent meat packed full of flavour.
