Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 pounds Boneless pork shoulder
- 2 cups BBQ sauce
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 2 medium Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Water
- 8 large Burger buns or rolls
Instructions
Chop the yellow onion into thin slices and mince the garlic cloves.
In the bottom of the crock pot, layer the sliced onions and garlic evenly.
Place the boneless pork shoulder on top of the onion and garlic layer in the crock pot.
In a separate bowl, mix together the BBQ sauce, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, apple cider vinegar, and brown sugar. Stir until well combined.
Pour the BBQ sauce mixture evenly over the pork shoulder, ensuring it is fully covered.
Add 1/2 cup of water around the sides of the pork shoulder to prevent burning and keep the meat moist.
Cover the crock pot and set it to cook on low heat for 8 hours or on high heat for 4-5 hours. The pork should be tender and easily shredded with a fork.
Once cooked, remove the pork shoulder from the crock pot and place it on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the meat into small pieces.
Return the shredded pork to the crock pot and mix it with the BBQ sauce and juices left in the pot.
Serve the pulled BBQ pork on burger buns or rolls for a delicious and easy meal.
