Pulled pork substitute- How do I do it? I want to emulate pulled pork for my non-pork eating friend (semi-Jewish, read: no pigs, it doesn't have to be technically kosher).  What cut of beef would achieve a similar texture? The closest I've ever eaten was short ribs, but is there something better?  I'm not too worried about duplicating the method- I'm comfortable with a crock pot, a dutch oven, stove top cooking, whatever- just looking for a similar end result.
Depending on the dish, maybe duck confit.  It works really well in tacos. It has the nice unctuous fat and goes well with tomatillo and avocado.  But it'd probably be hard or expensive to get in large quantities.
