Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 4 lbs pork shoulder

Liquids and Sauces

  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1 cup chicken broth

Vegetables

  • 1 onion, sliced

Seasonings

  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Season the Pork: Generously season the 4 lbs pork shoulder all over with salt and pepper, ensuring a well-balanced flavor throughout the meat.
  2. Prepare Slow Cooker Base: Place the sliced onion evenly at the bottom of the crockpot to layer a fragrant base that will infuse the pork with flavor as it cooks.
  3. Add Pork to Crockpot: Lay the seasoned pork shoulder on top of the onions, allowing the pork to rest directly on the aromatics.
  4. Pour Liquids: Pour 1 cup of chicken broth and 1 cup of BBQ sauce over the pork, coating it to keep it moist and impart rich barbecue flavor as it slow cooks.
  5. Cook Slowly: Cover and cook on the low heat setting for 8 hours, allowing the pork to become extremely tender and easy to shred.
  6. Shred and Serve: Remove the pork from the crockpot, shred it using two forks, and mix well with the remaining juices. Serve warm on buns for delicious pulled pork sandwiches.

Notes

  • For best results, use a pork shoulder cut with some fat marbling to keep the meat juicy.
  • Leftover pulled pork can be refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
  • Try customizing the BBQ sauce to suit your preferred flavor—smoky, sweet, or spicy.
  • Optionally, serve with coleslaw or pickles for extra texture.
