Steps:
- Mix the paprika, garlic power, brown sugar, dry mustard, and salt together in a small bowl. Rub the spice blend all over the pork. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Put the pork in a roasting pan and roast it for about 6 hours. An instant-read thermometer stuck into the thickest part of the pork should register 170 degrees F, but basically, what you want to do is to roast it until it's falling apart.
- While the pork is roasting, make the barbecue sauce. Combine the vinegar, mustard, ketchup, brown sugar, garlic, salt, cayenne, and black pepper in a saucepan over medium heat. Simmer gently, stirring, for 10 minutes until the sugar dissolves. Take it off the heat and let it sit until you're ready for it.
- When the pork is done, take it out of the oven and put it on a large platter. Allow the meat to rest for about 10 minutes. While it's resting, deglaze the pan over medium heat with 3/4 cup water, scraping with a wooden spoon to pick up all of the browned bits. Reduce by about half. Pour that into the saucepan with the sauce and cook 5 minutes.
- While the pork is still warm, you want to "pull" the meat: Grab 2 forks. Using 1 to steady the meat, use the other to "pull" shreds of meat off the roast. Put the shredded pork in a bowl and pour half of the sauce over. Stir it all up well so that the pork is coated with the sauce.
- To serve, spoon the pulled pork mixture onto the bottom half of each hamburger bun, and top with some slaw. Serve with pickle spears and the remaining sauce on the side.
- Combine the cabbage, carrots, red onion, green onions, and chile in a large bowl. In another bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, lemon juice, and sugar. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss gently to mix. Season the cole slaw with the celery seed, hot sauce, salt, and black pepper. Chill for 2 hours in the refrigerator before serving.
3 INGREDIENT BEER PULLED PORK
Not counting the seasonings, there are only 3 amazing ingredients in this "off the cuff" recipe I made one day. Now it's the only way I cook pulled pork. You can use any kind of beer or ale and any brand of barbecue sauce. I use Shiner Bock beer and Sweet Baby Ray's regular barbecue sauce.

Steps:
- 1. Turn the slow cooker to medium. Add the pork butt. Season top and bottom with salt, pepper, onion powder and garlic powder. Pour 1 can beer into slow cooker, leaving seasonings on top. Cover and go to bed.
- 2. Seriously, do this about 10 p.m. and go to bed. About 9 a.m. the next morning remove the pork and shred with a fork; discard the juice/beer and the remains of the pork butt. Rinse out crock pot with warm water and place shredded pork back in; pour the barbecue sauce over top and mix. Cover and turn to low and heat for about 2 additional hours.
- 3. Serve on onion buns or any type you'd like. Makes about 16 very large sandwiches. This recipe is perfect for a party, and you can even prepare 2 and feed around 30 people.
SLOW COOKER BBQ PULLED PORK
If you've spent any time on Pinterest or food blogs, you've likely come across a recipe for three-ingredient barbecue pulled pork that can be made in the slow cooker. Methods and ingredients vary, but the recipe almost always calls for boneless pork shoulder, some sort of dark cola (usually Dr Pepper or root beer) and barbecue sauce. Dubious? We were too, so we asked the members of our NYT Cooking Community Facebook page if anyone had ever made it and if they liked it. We received more than 150 very opinionated responses. Many readers have come up with their own clever twists, like using coffee or beer in place of cola, adding onions or chipotles, rubbing the meat with a spice blend and searing the meat before cooking. We tried cooking it a few different ways and found we liked this adaptation best. It calls for a few more ingredients and an extra step or two, but it's got layers of flavor and it's still mostly fuss-free. (You can find the pressure-cooker version of this recipe here.)

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the garlic and onion powders, smoked paprika, salt and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork. If you have time, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight. If you don't, no worries; proceed to Step 2.
- Lightly grease the crock of a slow cooker. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sear the pork until golden brown on all sides, about 2 minutes each side. Add onion, if using, to the slow cooker. Add the pork on top of the onion. Pour soda over the pork and set the slow cooker to low for 6 to 8 hours, until the meat has collapsed and shreds easily.
- Drain most of the liquid from the slow cooker and shred the meat directly in the pot. Add about 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce and stir to combine. (At this point, if you like crisp bits in your pulled pork, you can spread the shredded pork on a sheet pan and place under a broiler for a couple minutes then return to the slow cooker.) Taste and add more barbecue sauce, hot sauce, salt or pepper, if desired. Serve with soft rolls and extra sauce on the side.
3 INGREDIENT PULLED PORK
This pulled pork could not be easier! I used a pork loin roast for this but you could used tenderloin. I trimmed off the huge slab of fat on the side but you don't have to. I also used about 16 oz of homemade BBQ instead of the bottled stuff. The pork turned out very tender! I served this on toasted hamburger buns with creamy slaw, pickles, and some hot sauce.

Steps:
- Trim off excess fat, if desired.
- Place roast in slow cooker. Pour in can of root beer.
- Cook, covered, on LOW heat for 6 hours.
- Drain away liquid and shred pork with fork.
- Stir in BBQ sauce. Serve as desired.
Tips:
- Choose the right pork shoulder: Look for a pork shoulder that is at least 5 pounds and has a good amount of marbling. This will ensure that the meat is tender and flavorful.
- Use a slow cooker: A slow cooker is the best way to cook pulled pork because it allows the meat to cook slowly and evenly. This results in a tender and juicy pork that is easy to shred.
- Add liquid to the slow cooker: You will need to add some liquid to the slow cooker to prevent the pork from drying out. You can use water, broth, or even beer. Just make sure that you don't add too much liquid, or the pork will become watery.
- Season the pork: You can season the pork with a variety of spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. You can also add a barbecue sauce or rub to the pork before cooking.
- Cook the pork on low for 8-10 hours: The pork will need to cook for at least 8 hours on low, or until it is fall-apart tender. You can also cook the pork on high for 4-6 hours, but the meat will be less tender.
- Shred the pork: Once the pork is cooked, you can shred it using two forks. You can also use a meat shredder to make the process easier.
- Serve the pulled pork: You can serve the pulled pork on a bun, in a taco, or over rice. You can also add your favorite toppings, such as barbecue sauce, coleslaw, or onions.

Pulled pork is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a tender and flavorful pulled pork that everyone will love.
