Calories 140kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pork butt boston butt, or pork shoulder
- 1 package Pioneer Smoky Pulled Bbq Pork Seasoning Mix or 1/3 cup pork barbecue dry rub
- 2 c. cola to be poured out after cooking time
- 1 cup favorite barbecue sauce of choice
Instructions
- In a large crock pot (6-7 quarts) place pork roast (boston butt, pork butt, or pork shoulder) down in the bottom of the crockpot. If the pork is too large to place the lid back down securely, you will need to cut it with a sharp knife into manageable chunks so that the lid will be in place during cooking.
- Sprinkle the pork with the dry rub, pour in the cola of your choice, and cover with the lid. Cook on high for 6-8 hours.
- Drain off the liquid in the crockpot (cola and grease) and return the crockpot bowl to the warmer. Shred with two forks and pour 1 cup of barbecue sauce on the pulled pork shreds. Fold the barbecue sauce into the pulled pork.
- This dish can be served with the many suggestions in this post such as pulled pork sandwiches, nachos, taco bar, or atop baked potatoes with extra sauce!
