Instructions

DirectionsRub: Combine the rub ingredients, in a small bowl and massage it into the pork shoulder until well coated.

Set aside while you make BBQ sauce.

You could do this a day ahead and keep refrigerated until ready to use.BBQ sauce: In a large saucepan, warm the oil, over low heat, until hot and shimmering.

Add the cumin and fennel; they should splutter upon contact - be careful! Once the spluttering subsides, add the onions, ginger and serrano and a little salt, to taste.

Saute until they soften but don't let them get any color.

Add the rest of the sauce ingredients.

Simmer about 5 minutes.

Taste and season.Add the pork shoulder to the saucepan, coating it with the sauce.

Cover, and gently simmer until the pork falls apart easily, stirring and turning often, about 3 hours.Remove the pork from the saucepan and shred it using 2 forks.

Return it to the sauce and stir to coat with the sauce.

Put a generous spoonful of the pork inside a brioche bun, top with a few slices of pickle and serve.
