Spicy Pulled Pork
Ingredients
  • 2 - 2 1/2
    pounds boneless pork shoulder
  • Salt and ground black pepper
  • 1
    large sweet onion, cut into thin wedges
  • 1
    18 - 20 ounce bottle hot-style barbecue sauce (about 1 3/4 cups)
  • 1
    cup Dr. Pepper carbonated beverage
  • 16 - 20
    baguette slices, toasted
  • Sliced pickles (optional)
Directions

1. Trim fat from meat. If necessary, cut meat to fit in a 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker. Sprinkle meat with salt and pepper.

2. Place onions in the slow cooker. Top with meat. In a medium bowl, stir together barbecue sauce and Dr. Pepper beverage. Pour sauce mixture over meat.

3. Cover; cook on low-heat setting for 8 to 10 hours or on high-heat setting for 4 to 5 hours.

4. Transfer meat to a cutting board. Using two forks, shred the meat. Return meat to cooker to combine with sauce and onions and keep warm.

5. Using a slotted spoon, divide meat mixture among half of the baguette slices. Top with remaining slices and secure with wooden picks. If desired, serve sandwiches with sliced pickles.

I spiced this up a bit by adding a small can of Chipotle peppers. Family loves it! Great for freezing too. Any leftovers, I spoon into a one quart freezer bag & pop in the freezer. Makes for a quick week night meal.
