It turned out AWESOME.  For the pulled pork part (so easy) – we used Sunny’s recipe here: https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/sunny-anderson/sunnys-easy-4-ingredient-pulled-pork-9855315

Changed the dry rub a bit by adding A LOT of garlic powder, more cumin than she suggests, dry onion flakes and a little rosemary.

FOR THE CAULIFLOWER!

I don’t know about you but after all this eating all day stuck at home life we’ve all been doing for the past year, a bowl full of carbs just doesn’t feel right anymore.  My body craves a little healthy these days, but without any flavor compromise.  Enter mashed cauliflower.

You’ll need:

1 head of raw cauliflower

1 pressure cooker with just a little (not even a 1/4 inch) of water in it

1 half cup of garlic powder (or an entire bulb grated)

and a $@#*load of butter  (ok half a stick or even a quarter stick will do just fine).

Drop the whole head of cauliflower (trim off the leaves now if you like) into the pressure cooker and pressure cook for 7 to 10 minutes.  Let the cooker calm down for a good 10 minutes at least before opening for safety reasons.

Drain the water, and mash up that cauliflower! You’ll find it mashes up VERY easily.  Mix in garlic and butter. Stir well.  It obviously won’t be as fluffy as potatoes but that won’t matter for this next step.

PLATING

Spread a layer of the garlic mashed cauliflower in a shallow (but not too shallow) pasta bowl.  Add a layer of pulled pork, and spoon more sauce on top.  It is amazing, you’ll think you just dropped a fortune at a high end restaurant.  It is DECADENT, so enjoy it slowly.  Some citrus squeezed over some raw shredded cabbage can be added to help cut the fat a bit.
