Easy slow cooker pork shoulder is excellent for making delicious pulled pork sandwiches or serving as an entree. Serve over rice or with Hawaiian sweet bread for a yummy little sandwich. I like to top the pulled pork with sliced roasted red peppers, blue cheese, and chimichurri sauce to make a delicious sandwich with Argentinean flavor.

Ingredients

  • (3 1/2) pound boneless pork shoulder: 1 piece
  • fluid ounces root beer: 8 piece
  • brown sugar: 3 Tbsp
  • ground cumin: 1 Tbsp
  • paprika: 1 Tbsp
  • salt: 1 Tbsp
  • black pepper: 1 Tbsp (freshly ground)
  • garlic powder: 2 tsp
  • onion powder: 1 tsp
  • oregano: 1 tsp (dried)

  3. Cook on Low for 5 hours. Switch to High and cook until meat is tender and can easily be pulled apart with a fork, about 3 hours more. Carefully remove pork and shred with 2 forks. Drizzle some liquid from the slow cooker over pork to moisten.
