Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sandwich

For the pork:
Add chopped onions and root beer into a large slow cooker.

In a separate bowl, mix salt, pepper, garlic, onion powder, brown sugar, paprika and olive oil until well combined.

Coat pork shoulder with mixture and place in slow cooker. Set to low heat, cover and cook for 8 hours.

For the purple slaw:
Set shredded cabbage and grated carrots aside.

In a large bowl combine remaining slaw ingredients until mixed well. Add the cabbage and carrots and mix until fully combined. Refrigerate until served.

After 8 hours the pork should “pull apart” easily with a fork. Pull apart remaining chunks to create shredded pieces. Serve pork on sandwich buns with your favorite BBQ sauce. Top with a spoonful of slaw.
