Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Shoulder BBQ
This simple meal requires only a few ingredients and your slow cooker does the majority of the work!
Equipment
- Slow cooker
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp chili powder
- 2 tbsp coarse sea salt
- 1-2 tbsp granulated garlic
- 2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp dry mustard
- 3-6 lb pork shoulder roast with some fat on the outside, bone-in or boneless
Instructions
- Pat the pork shoulder dry with a paper towel and place it in a flat pan.
- Mix together the dry ingredients for the dry rub and apply it to the pork shoulder roast, coating all surfaces and rubbing it in well. Let roast sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes to take the chill off.
- Cook in slow cooker on low setting for 7-8 hours.
- Pull the meat apart with two forks, your fingers, or chop into 1/2 inch pieces on a cutting board, then place in a warm bowl. Remove any tough sinew or large layers of fat. Mix some of the juices that accumulated in the slow cooker with the meat before serving.
