  • 2 teaspoons ginger grated fresh
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cloves ground
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons thyme
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons mustard powder dry
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt coarse
  • 1 teaspoon sweet paprika or hot paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon sugar

  • 1 lb pork butt boneless
  • 1 cup apple cider or apple juice

  • 8 whole-wheat hamburger bun sliced open
  • BBQ sauce
  • cilantro fresh

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, combine all the ingredients up to and including the cayenne.
  2. Using your fingers, rub spices together to ensure ginger is evenly dispersed. Then, rub the spice mixture all over the pork.
  3. Put the pork in the slow cooker, fat-side up, and pour the apple cider over it. Add the bay leaf.
  4. Cook on low for 8 hours. Then, remove pork from slow cooker and shred it using 2 forks.

  6. Serve on a bun with BBQ sauce and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro.
