This is sooooooooooo good - and I'm not tooting my own horn here, just repeating what I am told whenever I make this. You'll need a slow cooker for this... it's great to start in the morning and it's done for dinner.
Ingredients
pork butt roast (the size depends on how much you wanna make... and the size of your slow cooker)
1 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 cup water
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (this may seem excessive to some, but it's NOT. DO NOT skimp on this - the heat mellows out considerably, so it's not gonna blow your head off... it'll be fine even for the kids)
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
1 Tbsp paprika
1/4 cup brown sugar, plus 2 Tbsp
1 tsp liquid smoke (optional)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 small onion, chopped
1/2 cup ketchup
Directions
Combine everything EXCEPT the ketchup & the 2 Tbsp brown sugar in the slow cooker - cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours. After the pork is falling apart tender, remove the meat from the cooker into a bowl so you can pull it... I use 2 forks and just shred it all up. Take the broth from the cooker and pour it along with the ketchup & extra brown sugar into a saucepan and bring to a boil and reduce by half.
Serve the pork on hearty buns with a spoonful of sauce over it & some cole slaw on the side.
Seriously, people will wanna kiss you this is so yummy.
