How to Make Barbecue Pork Sandwiches

  1. Place a 2-3 lb pork shoulder roast in a greased 3 1/2 to 5-quart slow cooker.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 medium yellow onion (chopped), 1 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce, and 1/4 cup honey.
  3. Pour the onion, barbecue sauce, and honey mixture evenly over the pork roast in the slow cooker.
  4. Cover and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until the pork is easily shredded with a fork.
  5. Once the pork is cooked through, remove it from the slow cooker and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
  6. Using two forks, shred the pork. Mix some of the cooking liquid from the slow cooker into the shredded pork to keep it moist.
  7. Serve the shredded pork on your favorite sandwich rolls. Garnish with extra barbecue sauce, coleslaw, or your favorite toppings.
