Southern Pulled Pork

No sauce needed to dress up this pulled pork! Anything that I can put in my slow cooker is all right with me since I have a little man to chase around and play short order cook for all day. This made a massive serving of pork was enough to be used for 2 dinners with guests, a lunch for two then leftovers to make lettuce wraps and pork tacos.

The rub:
  • 2 tbl garlic powder
  • 1/2 onion, chopped
  • 2 tbl cumin
  • 2 tbl ground coriander ( I like smoked)
  • 2 tbl oregano
  • 2 tbl salt
  • 1 tbl pepper


Ingredients: 
  • 5-8 lbs of Boston butt or pork roast
  • 1 jar of salsa
  • 3 celery ribs chopped
  • 2 bay leafs


Into the pot:
In the bottom of the crock pot place the onions, celery and salsa. On top of that place the pork and add the seasonings to the top. I mix all of the seasonings together in a bowl then apply them so they spread evenly. This may look a little strange and like you need liquid but it will be swimming in pork juices soon enough. Set the crock pot to low for 8 hours or high for 4-5. I turned my pork every hour to spread the seasonings around.

Serving:
Discard the 2 bay leafs and ladle out any extra liquids. Remove any bones or huge sections of fat. Take two forks and pull the meat apart into stringy sections. Enjoy.
