DR. PEPPER PULLED PORK IN THE SLOW COOKER image

Categories     Pork     Dinner

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2-3 lb pork butt (also known as a pork shoulder)
24 oz. (2 cans) Dr. Pepper
1 medium onion, cut in quarters and then again in half
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons dry ground mustard
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
Barbecue Sauce of choice

Steps:

  • Place the chopped onions in the bottom of the slow cooker. Place the pork butt on top of the onions and add the garlic, ground mustard, cayenne pepper, salt, pepper, apple cider vinegar and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the Dr. Pepper on top and cook on high for 4-5 hours (or on low for 8 hours). Very carefully, because the pork will be hot, remove the meat from the slow cooker and place on a large cutting board. Using two forks, shred the pork by pulling away from each other. The meat should be very tender by this point. Place the shredded pork back into the slow cooker and continue to cook for an additional hour. Drain the remaining juices and toss the meat and onion mixture in the barbecue sauce of choice. I don't have an exact amount listed-just add a bit at a time until you get to your desired sauciness

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pulled pork turned out dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This pulled pork was a little too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved it.

I'm not a huge fan of Dr. Pepper, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well it worked in this recipe. The pulled pork was moist and flavorful.

This pulled pork was fall-apart tender and had a delicious smoky flavor. The Dr. Pepper added a subtle sweetness that perfectly complemented the pork.
