Easy Pulled Pork made in the oven with a delicious homemade rub that tastes like it came from a smoker or your favorite BBQ restaurant.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 cup salt *
- 1/4 cup coarse ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup sweet paprika
- 1/3 cup smoked paprika
- 1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 5 pounds pork shoulder
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
Instructions
- Mix everything but the pork shoulder and the oil together in a large metal bowl.
- Add in the pork shoulder and roll it in the seasoning well, packing on all the seasoning as best as you can.
- Wrap the top with saran wrap and refrigerate overnight (optional but very highly recommended).
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
- Using a large dutch oven add the canola oil over medium high heat.
- Brown the pork on all sides then turn off the stovetop.
- Add in a small rack under the pork into the dutch oven (in the absence of this use foil).
- Place the pork on top then cover.
- Cook for 3-3 1/2 hours (if the meat is longer rather than thicker 3 should be long enough).
- Shred before serving.
- If you want to keep the juices, skim the fat off then pour over the pork before serving.
Notes
- *I use smoked salt - it's inexpensive and DELICIOUS!
