Hazelnut Free Citrus & Herb Pulled Pork

Pulled pork that smells like a citrus grove and a spice market collided in the best possible way — that's exactly what you're getting here. A bone-in pork shoulder gets rubbed down with turmeric, ginger, Ceylon cinnamon, and dried herbs before being seared hard in coconut oil until every side is deeply, unapologetically browned. From there, it braises low and slow in a braising liquid built from fresh orange juice, lime juice, bone broth, coconut aminos, and a touch of honey, which means the meat drinks in bright, tangy flavor for hours. When it finally shreds apart, it goes back under the broiler so the edges caramelize and crisp — that contrast of juicy interior and slightly charred bits is genuinely hard to stop eating. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of tree nuts, so there's no label-scanning or substitution gymnastics required; the recipe just works as written. Finish it with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime, and you've got a centerpiece dish that tastes like it took serious effort but mostly just asked you to be patient.
