As promised...Pulled Pork!

Hello!!

Sorry to be out of pocket, but it has been a pretty crazy week.

Anyway, as promised...here is my Pulled Pork recipe. The best thing about it is that you do it in a crock pot! A few people have made it recently and really enjoyed it, so here it is.

1 4-7 lb. bone in pork shoulder
2 white onions, halved
Kaiser Rolls
Broccoli Slaw
1 c. bbq sauce (homemade or your favorite brand)
Dry Rub
Wet Marinade

Dry Rub:
1/2 c. brown sugar
1 tbsp. paprika
1 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Pepper
1 tsp. Chipotle Powder
1 tsp. dry mustard
1 tsp. granulated garlic
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

Stir to combine.

Wet Marinade:
3/4 c. Cider Vinegar
1/4 c. Rice Vinegar
1/4 c. Worcestershire Sauce
1 tsp. crushed Red Pepper flakes
1 tbsp. granulated sugar
1 tbsp. brown sugar
1/2 tsp. dry mustard
1/2 tsp. granulated garlic

Whisk to combine. Cover, and refrigerate.

Pat the pork dry with a couple paper towels, and then score fat side of the roast with a sharp knife. In a zip top bag, add the roast, then all of the dry rub. Seal bag, and turn until pork is covered with the rub. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, but up to 24 hours (I prefer to go the full 24 hours. I then add all the wet marinade to the porky bag of goodness, and let it rest for another 12 hours).

After the meat has had a chance to absorb the dry rub, put the onions on the bottom of your crock pot as a "base", then put the pork and the now syrupy juices right on top. Add about half of the wet marinade on top of the roast, and refrigerate the remainder (to drizzle over your pork later, if desired). Cover the crock pot, and cook on low for 10 hours, or high for 6 hours.

Remove meat and onions. Shred the meat in a large bowl adding some of the cooked juices from the crock pot, and the bbq sauce. Chop the onions and serve on toasted rolls, topped with slaw.

I use a pack of shredded broccoli slaw tossed with about 1/4 c or Poppy seed dressing and about a tablespoon of Apple Cider Vinegar. If you're not a broccoli fan, please use any slaw you enjoy (even if it's none)!

Enjoy!!! xo
