Jackfruit turned pulled pork


I’ve made this only a handful of times, and it never ceases to amaze me how yummy this is. Following Chow Vegan’s instructions, sorta kinda, I made this over the weekend and just polished off the remainders. I can’t find canned Jackfruit in brine so I buy the frozen green fruit from Hawai. I neglected to sauté first, and I actually marinated the squeezed-out fruit for a whole day in the fridge. I dumped the whole lot into a well-heated cast iron pan and added a few tablespoons of olive oil for good measure. I cooked it on minimum heat for about 2 hours, checking on it every 20 minutes or so to avoid super-burning. Eat it right away if you must, but waiting at least a day is really worth the wait.
