How to Make Awesome Bbq Pulled Pork No Smoker Or Barbecue Needed
- Trim excess visible fat from a 3-4 lb pork shoulder roast.
- Pour 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar over the roast, ensuring all sides are moistened.
- Generously rub the pork with 2 tbsp paprika, 1 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tbsp garlic powder, 1 tbsp onion powder, 1 tbsp chili powder, 1 tsp cumin, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tsp salt.
- Place the seasoned pork roast in your slow cooker. Cook on low for at least 5 hours, or up to 8 hours, until the pork is incredibly tender and easily shreds.
- Carefully remove the pork roast from the slow cooker. Pour off most of the accumulated liquid.
- Remove the bone from the pork and discard any remaining large chunks of fat. Add the remaining 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar to the slow cooker.
- Using two forks, shred the pork into large chunks. Don't over-shred; it will break down further as you add the sauce.
- Stir in 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce and 1/2 cup packed brown sugar. Gently fold to combine, ensuring all the pork is coated.
- For optimal texture, leave some larger pieces of pulled pork for a more rustic feel.
