Ingredients

  • 3-4 pounds Pork butt
  • 2 tablespoons kosher salt
  • ⅓ cup liquid smoke
  • barbecue sauce, optional

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Use salt to rub pork butt generously.
  2. Place pork in your slow cooker and pour liquid smoke over the top.
  3. Turn slow cooker on low. Cook for 8- 10 hours or until pork is tender and shreds easily.
  4. Using a fork, shred all the pork. Add BBQ sauce and stir until all pork is coated. Serve with buns or rolls, add additional BBQ sauce and any other preferred toppings.

Notes

  • To Freeze: Freezing this pork is super easy, and a great way to save leftovers. Store individual servings in resealable plastic freezer bags. Make sure to seal the bags tightly so none of it will leak out. Frozen pulled pork will last 2–3 months in the freezer. Pull it out for a quick and easy meal when you do not have time to make dinner! Let it thaw at room temperature, then heat it up on the stove or in the microwave.
  • Oven Directions: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Rub liquid smoke and salt over the pork butt and wrap in foil. Place in a roasting pan and cook for 5 hours, or until the internal temperature is 145°F. Shred and serve as directed above.
