How to Make Awesome Barbecued Pork Sandwiches

  1. Trim excess fat from a 3-4 pound pork shoulder roast and cut into pieces that fit comfortably in your slow cooker.
  2. Generously salt and pepper both sides of the pork.
  3. Place the seasoned pork in the slow cooker. Top with 1 large onion, thinly sliced, and 4 cloves garlic, minced.
  4. Cook on low for 7 hours, or until the pork is fork-tender.
  5. Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker.
  6. Stir in 1 ½ cups of your favorite barbecue sauce. Cook on low for an additional 1-1.5 hours, allowing the flavors to meld.
  7. Serve the delicious pulled pork on your favorite sandwich rolls. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
