Scottish baked pork sandwich - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can substitute the pork cut. A pork shoulder or Boston butt would also work well, as they are well-suited for slow cooking and shredding. Adjust cooking time as needed depending on the size and fat content of the cut.
If you don’t have applesauce or prefer a different flavor, try using pear sauce, cranberry sauce, or even a savory chutney like mango chutney for a tangy twist.
Leftover shredded pork can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat thoroughly before serving.
Yes, the shredded pork freezes well. Allow it to cool completely, then store it in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 2-3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
While a cast-iron brazier is ideal as it distributes heat evenly, a Dutch oven or any heavy-bottomed pot with a lid can be used as a substitute. Make sure it's oven-safe.
To make this recipe low-carb, skip the bun and serve the shredded pork and applesauce over a bed of greens or cauliflower rice. You can also use low-carb tortillas or lettuce wraps instead of buns.
Besides a sandwich, the shredded pork is delicious in tacos, sliders, or over mashed potatoes. You can also add coleslaw for extra crunch and flavor.
If you're missing some spices for the apple sauce, don't worry! Cinnamon is the most important. You can omit cardamom or substitute it with a pinch of nutmeg or allspice.
