Main ingredients
Preparation method

FOR THE RICE POWDER

Toast uncooked white rice in a dry pan and blitz in a blender till you get a rough powder.

FOR THE SHOULDER

Rub it up, then smoke at 120°C for 6 hours without opening your smoker.

Wrap the butt tightly in foil or peach/butcher’s paper and put it back in the smoker. Leave to cook for 6–8 hours or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 92–95°C. (lf you don’t have a great smoker for such long cooks, this stage could be done in the oven at 120°C.)

Whilst still wrapped, press down on the parcel to start breaking up the pork inside and make a flatter easier-to-chill shape. Leave the pork to cool for a while at room temperature. You can eat it now but to make it even better, chill in the fridge for at least 24 hours. Pork changes dramatically when it is cooled and reheated.

Hot or cold, mix the pork with the dressing and cook the taco on a dry pan.

Add the pork to the taco, top with fresh herbs and chilli and dust on some extra rice flour.
