Old gorton recipe from French-Canadian Memere (Grandma). Delicious and spicy pork spread for sandwiches. Pronounced “gah-ton.” Enjoy on a sandwich with mustard or eat alone.
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean pork butt, cut into pieces
- 1 onion, chopped
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- salt and black pepper to taste
Directions
Step 1
Place pork, onion, cinnamon, and clove into a saucepan. Season with salt and pepper. Pour in enough water to just cover pork. Bring to a boil.
Step 2
Reduce heat to medium-low and cook until water has nearly evaporated, about 1 hour. Stir occasionally to ensure pork cooks evenly.
Step 3
Use a potato masher or wire whisk to break pork into thin strands. Pour off any remaining liquid, then spoon gorton into a serving bowl. Refrigerate until cold before serving.
