It may take some time, but the results are worth it! A great thing about this pulled-pork recipe, though, is that no oven is required on a hot summer day… It's all slow cooker all the way! Throw in the ingredients and eight hours later, voila!
Ingredients
- 2 medium onions, chopped
- 1 cup ketchup
- 2/3 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup tomato paste
- 4 tablespoons paprika
- 1/2 tablespoon cayenne pepper
- 4 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 4 teaspoons salt
- 3 teaspoons black pepper
- 5 pounds pork butt, cut into 2 pieces
- Rolls or buns
Directions
1. Combine all of the ingredients except the pork butt and the buns in a large slow cooker. Stir together with a spoon until well combined. Add the 2 pieces of pork and place the lid on the slow cooker. Cook for 8 hours on low or until pork is tender and easily pulls apart from the bone.
2. Take two forks and shred the pork. Place the pork back into the slow cooker with the remaining sauce.
3. Stir well and serve on rolls or buns. Pickles optional but worth it!
