Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Pork shoulder (boneless)
- 3 cups Canned baked beans
- 1 large Onion (diced)
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Ketchup
- 1 tbsp Mustard (yellow or Dijon)
- 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Chicken broth
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork shoulder on all sides until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. This seals in the juices and adds flavor.
Place the seared pork shoulder in the crock pot (slow cooker).
In a medium bowl, mix together canned baked beans, diced onion, minced garlic, brown sugar, ketchup, mustard, apple cider vinegar, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and chicken broth until well combined.
Pour the bean mixture over the pork shoulder in the crock pot, ensuring the pork is fully covered.
Set the crock pot to low heat and cook for 8 hours, or on high heat for 4 hours, until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
Once cooked, carefully remove the pork from the crock pot and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the crock pot and stir it into the beans.
Serve the pork and beans hot with your favorite side dishes, such as cornbread or coleslaw. Enjoy!
