Crock Pot Pulled Pork From Heaven

(2 votes) 5 2

With the leftovers from the pulled pork recipe below, we have made sandwiches, combined some with BBQ sauce and ate it straight from the bowl in the fridge-all sheer bliss. Today when I spied the last of our supply, I was inspired to make tacos with all my favorite toppings. This tends to be one of those recipes in our house where the leftovers are fought over.

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2-4 lbs. boneless pork shoulder
  • 1 Tbs. brown sugar
  • 2 Tbs. Cajun seasoning
  • 1 Tbs. salt
  • 1 Tbs. cumin
  • 1 Tbs. paprika
  • 1 Tbs. fresh ground black pepper
  • 1 Tbs. chili powder
  • 1/2 Tbs. mesquite powder
  • 1/2 C. frozen apple juice concentrate
  • 1/2 C. cider vinegar

Directions

Combine brown sugar through mesquite powder. Spread over entire roast. Refrigerate roast in a Ziploc bag for up to 24 hours. Place apple juice and vinegar in a crock pot and add the spiced shoulder being careful not to lose the rub. Cook on high for two hours, then reduce to low for 10 more hours. Remove the roast and let rest for 30 minutes. Pull roast apart with two forks.
