Method

  1. 1

    Cut the pork shoulder into large chunks. Place in a saucepan with the bacon, garlic, thyme, stock, and black pepper. Add enough water to just cover.

  2. 2

    Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook gently for 50 minutes until the pork is completely tender and falling apart.

  3. 3

    Remove the meat with a slotted spoon and shred finely using two forks. Beat in a few spoonfuls of the cooking juices until the mixture is spreadable but textured. Season well and stir in the mustard.

  4. 4

    Toast thick slices of sourdough and serve with generous spoonfuls of the warm rillettes.
