Crock Pot Pulled Pork

[SeaCat]

Okay so maybe you don't have access to a Smoker. Maybe you live in an apartment or in a development that doesn't allow them. Or maybe you just don't want one even though you do like Pulled Pork. (I have family like that and they asked me to give them a recipe.) Well here's your cure. One warning though, it takes a while.

4 Lbs. Pork Roast. (Either Shoulder or Butt.)
2 large Onions
1 cup Ginger Ale
1 18 ounce bottle of your favorite BBQ Sauce.
1-2 Chipotle Peppers (Optional)
BBQ Sauce for serving. (Optional)
1 large Crock Pot

Slice up the onions and place one in the bottom of the crock pot. Add the Pepper.

Put the roast in fat side up. Cover with the rest of the Onion and pour the Ginger Ale over it. Cover and cook on low for 12 hours.

Remove the meat and Onions. Discard the Juice. (I like to keep maybe half a cup of the juice.) With two forks shred the meat getting rid of any remaining fat, bones or skin. (MOst if not all of the fat will have melted away.)

Return the meat and Onions to the crock pot. Mix in the BBQ Sauce and if you kept out the juice add that as well. Cook for another 4-6 hours on low.

Serve as you wish.

Hey Cat...could you substitute something else like 7Up for ginger-ale? I'm allergic to it.

Anyone who'd eat pulled pork will eat dog turds.

Quiet Jimmy, just sit and pull your pork like a good lad. You can have a dog turd for dessert later if you like.

7-Up or Sprite would both work with a slightly different flavor. (Slightly sweeter.)
