Method
- Turn the slow-cooker on. Cut the joint into two pieces. Heat a large frying pan with 1 tbsp of the oil. Season the meat and sear on all sides. Place in the cooker.
- Using the same frying pan heat the remaining oil. Add the onion, season and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and 200ml water and mix together.
- Pour over the meat and cook for 4 hours on high or 8 hours on low. Do not remove the lid during cooking or it will take longer.
- Remove the meat from the cooker. Shred the meat with two forks. Pour any excess off from the sauce and mix with the meat.
- Serve the meat on toasted buns with rocket, tomato, peppadews or sliced pickles and red onion slices.
