Ingredients

Dry rub:

  • 2 tablespoons salt
  • 2 tablespoons black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 1/2 tablespoon cayenne
  • 4 pound shoulder pork roast
  • 2 cup apple juice
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire
  • 1/2 tablespoon liquid smoke
  • 1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 6 soft hamburger buns with seeds
  • Bbq sauce
  • Cole slaw

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

Mix the dry rub ingredients in small bowl. Sprinkle dry rub all over the pork roast, pressing into the pork. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

    My husband LOVED this recipe, although the rub was a bit hot for me. However, when doused with bbq sauce, it mellows it out just fine. SUPER tasty and SUPER easy! Will definitely be making it again!

    Very good sandwich. Next time my only change will be to cut the cayenne in half and use a little less black pepper. Even my spice loving husband noticed the "kick" in the rub. We used a sweet bbq sauce to counteract the heat and it turned out very tasty. Very easy too. You will end up with a lot of meat so invite some friends over or be prepared for leftovers all week.

    I’m pretty sure this barbeque pulled pork marks the best thing I have ever made in a crockpot. Or maybe the best thing I have ever made, period? Thank you Paula Deen, thank you. I thought that three parts Sweet Baby Ray’s mixed with one part Open Pit made the perfect sweet and savory sauce.
