Pulled pork and salted caramel are the foods of 2016
It's like barbecue sauces, the stuff in the UK has no right even being associated with barbecues. I've had pulled pork in the US, it is delicious the crap you get here isn't even proper pork. It's like the major point of this thread, smoked food from retailers or restaurants is lousy and I can understand people getting frustrated with the idea. But home hot smoked food is delicious and can turn a boring piece of meat or fish into a burst of flavour in each mouthful. |

Is this the pitiful UK impersonation of pulled pork from the US?

But everywhere you go you've got posters say pulled pork, every shop and restaurant bursting at the seams with things saying salted caramel. I was commenting on their ubiquitousness rather than their quality |

Not sure. I don't eat it so I've got no way of appraising its authenticity.

Which suggests to me it's cheap rubbish. Don't touch it, not ever, if no one does then maybe they'll get the hint and move on to another way of ripping off the unsuspecting members of the public.

Depends where you get it from. I've had great pulled pork in this country, although I agree that the stuff served up in pub chains and the like is a pretty poor imitation.
