Crock Pot Pulled Pork


This was my first try at pulled pork, and I was pleasantly surprised. Be forewarned, this recipe took me 12 hours of cooktime, but it is worth it. Prep is quite simple and easy - highly recommended!

Ingredients:

4-5 pound pork shoulder
1 1/2 cups ketchup
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cups brown sugar
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 cloves garlic, chopped finely
2 teaspoons liquid smoke

Instructions:

  1. Trim pork shoulder. Mix together all other ingredients in a large bowl or dish. Place pork in dish with sauce, make sure all surfaces are covered, and let marinate for an hour or two.
  2. Transfer contents of dish (meat AND sauce) into crock pot and cook on low for 10-12 hours, or until meat falls apart.
  3. Using tongs, remove chunks of pork, cool, and carefully shred, taking care to remove bone and any fatty bits.
  4. Serve on sandwiches, or however you please. Additional bbq sauce optional!
