A plant-based vegan version of pulled pork, this easy slow cooker recipe is full of flavour and bound to please vegetarian and vegan guests at parties and barbecues. Double the recipe if making for a crowd.The best slow cookers make it easy to create recipes from cheaper cuts of meat, a variety of veggies, or whatever’s left over in your fridge, for a fuss-free, low-cost meal. And what’s even better is that the cooking’s done for you. Made from brushed stainless steel with a non-slip base, it’s a great way to be more economical with your cooking. It works by trapping the condensation which then acts as a self-baster, so traditionally tough cuts of meat become tender and succulent – and all you need to do is add your ingredients to the pot before you let it works its magic. It doesn’t get much more comforting than a pork casserole, and it doesn’t get much easier than cooking it in a slow cooker! Fill the kitchen with comforting aromas and enjoy a hearty stew with succulent pork pieces at the end of a long working day. A built-in timer is handy, but these are generally found on more expensive models with digital controls. They’re ideal if you’re going to be away from the slow cooker for longer than the recipe states. Once the cooking time you've set on the timer has been reached, the slow cooker will either switch to a 'keep warm' setting or turn off. This means your food will still be ready to eat when you are, without it getting overcooked. Hob-proof pots
