Description

Slow-cooked pork roast simmered for 10 hours in a delicious homemade barbecue marinade…

Ingredients

  • 3 pounds Boneless Pork Shoulder Roast
  • 2 stalks Celery, Chopped
  • 2 whole Jalapenos, Chopped
  • 1 can (14 Oz. Size) Reduced Sodium Chicken Broth
  • ½ cups Sugar
  • ½ cups Red Wine Vinegar
  • ½ cups Soy Sauce (or Tamari Sauce)
  • 4 teaspoons Ground Mustard
  • 4 teaspoons Paprika
  • 3 dashes Liquid Smoke

Preparation

Place the pork into a slow cooker. Top with celery and peppers. Mix remaining ingredients together and then pour over top of the pork. Cook on high for 1 hour and then low for 7 hours.

Remove meat from slow cooker; remove any pieces of fat and then shred with two forks. Place shredded meat and all liquid from slow cooker into a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to simmer and simmer, uncovered, for 1 1/2 hours.

Okay, okay, I admit it…this isn’t exactly low in fat. But it’s not horrible, considering. And it’s really good. I’m just sayin’…

really great. I did it in the crock pot, on all day, then remembered that we had other supper plans!! So I put the meat and juice into a ceramic dutch oven, and stuck it in the refrig. The next day I reheated it in the oven while we were at church (2 hrs) and it was so good!!

This was DELICIOUS! Just fantastic, I loved it and so did my whole family!
I did change the recipe up just a tad.
Instead of the chicken stock mentioned, I used my own, homemade stock that I had cooked up a couple of nights before for another recipe. I will definitely repeat this move next time, as I believe it gave the pork an extra load of flavor.
I also cooked the pork for only six hours before putting it in the saucepan and cooking on the stove for the remaining one and a half hours. At that point it was already very easily coming apart with a fork, so I decided on taking it out early.
After I placed it in the saucepan and had been cooking it for about half an hour, I added a bit of brown sugar and barbecue sauce because it was missing a certain flavor that I think I may have achieved with the BBQ sauce addition.

Overall, this was the best pulled pork I have ever had the pleasure of eating, not to mention the ease with which it was made! I will definitely be making it again sometime, it is now my go-to pulled pork recipe!
