Instructions

  1. Trim the heavy fat from the pork butt with a flexible boning knife, then score the remaining fat.
  2. Coat the pork all over with the 3 tablespoons avocado oil, then cover it completely with pork rub. Let it sit at room temperature for 1 hour.
  3. Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Set the pork on a rack over a rimmed sheet pan and roast for 3 hours.
  4. Place the pork on a thick sheet of foil, drizzle with the apple juice and dot with the butter. Wrap it tightly and return it to the rack over the pan. Roast 3 to 4 more hours, until very tender and it shreds easily with a fork.
  5. Take the pork out, let it rest wrapped for at least 1 hour, then shred it.
  6. For the slaw, whisk the 1/4 cup avocado oil, lime juice, honey, coriander, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. In a large bowl, combine the red cabbage, red onion, cilantro and jalapeños, then toss with the dressing.
  7. To serve, pile the pulled pork onto warm tortillas and top with queso fresco, the slaw and avocado slices.
