Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Season the pork well with 1 1/2 tablespoons of smoked salt. In a dutch oven or cast iron-casserole, heat the canola oil until hot and shimmering. Add the pork and cook over moderately high heat, turning until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a plate and set aside. Add the apple, onion, carrot, celery, garlic and thyme sprigs to the casserole and cook over moderate heat until somewhat caramelized, about 6-7 minutes. Add the smoked paprika and tomato paste and cook until the paste deepens in color, about 3-4 minutes. Add the wine, chicken stock, vinegar and honey and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer. Add the pork - the braising liquid should come up about halfway on the pork shoulder - cover the casserole tightly with aluminum foil and place the lid over top. Transfer to the preheated oven. Braise the pork for about 3 hours, turning once halfway through, until very tender. Tranfer the pork to a clean plate. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve into a large bowl, gently pressing on the solids with the back of a spoon. Pour the sauce back into the casserole. Using two forks, or your very clean hands, shred the pork, discarding any pieces of fat. Transfer the pork back to the sauce and gently stir in the mascarpone. Season the salt the additional smoked salt and pepper. Cover and keep warm. In a large pot of salted boiling water, add a teaspoon of olive oil. Add the pappardelle and cook until al dente. Drain the pasta and transfer to the casserole with the sauce. Toss the pasta with the sauce and parsley and thyme leaves until well-coated. Transfer the pasta to warm bowls. Drizzle with good-quality extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with a little smoked salt, garnish with a sprig of thyme and serve.

Food Joke

A guy is sitting at a bar, and a drunk dude walks up to him, calling his mom a whore. The first guy just ignores it and stays in his spot drinking his beer. An hour goes by and the drunk dude comes back saying, "Your mom is a whore!" The first guy looks around the bar, sees people staring and says, "Don't worry, everything is cool here," and shrugs it off. After a few more shots, the drunk dude walks up a third time and says, "Your mom... is such... a whore!" The guy finally gets mad, throws his fist on the table and says, "You know what, Dad? Go home!"
