Peanut Free Maple Garlic Pulled Pork

Slow-braised pulled pork is one of those dishes that fills the whole house with an irresistible smell before you've even sat down to eat, and this version takes that comfort to another level entirely. A warming spice rub of turmeric, ginger, and Ceylon cinnamon gets seared into a deep, caramelized crust before the pork shoulder ever sees the oven, building layers of flavor that no shortcut can replicate. The braising sauce — built from smashed garlic, pure maple syrup, coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, and bone broth — reduces into something glossy and deeply savory, coating every shredded strand of meat. Because the ingredient list leans on whole, recognizable pantry staples rather than bottled sauces or spice blends, there's no need to squint at labels hunting for hidden peanut derivatives or shared-facility warnings. The long, low braise in a Dutch oven does all the heavy lifting, turning a tough bone-in shoulder into fork-tender, pull-apart perfection over a few unhurried hours. Pile it over rice, tuck it into lettuce wraps, or just eat it straight from the pot — the sauce alone is worth the wait.
