Recipe Summary Slow Cooker Barbecue Pulled Pork
This slow cooker barbecue pulled pork is spice-rubbed for the best flavor.Ingredients | Bbq Pulled Pork Recipes
4 tablespoons paprika
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 tablespoon ground white pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or more to taste
1 (7 pound) bone-in pork shoulder roast
¼ cup water
½ teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring (Optional)
2 cups barbecue sauce
Directions
Mix paprika, brown sugar, chili powder, cumin, salt, black pepper, oregano, sugar, white pepper, and cayenne together in a small bowl.
Massage spice rub into the pork roast. Wrap tightly in a double layer of plastic wrap; refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
Unwrap the roast and place in the bottom of a lined slow cooker. Add water and liquid smoke. Cover and cook on Low until pork is fork-tender, 8 to 10 hours.
Transfer roast to a cutting board; discard liquid in the cooker. "Pull" by tearing meat into thin shreds with 2 forks or your fingers. Discard fat.
Place shredded meat back in the slow cooker; toss with 1 cup barbecue sauce, and heat on Low until hot, 30 to 60 minutes. Serve with remaining barbecue sauce.
For stronger flavor, the roast can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
