This Classic Southern Style Pork Barbecue is succulent and fall apart good!
A while back I showed you how to cook barbecue chicken in a slow cooker. You can switch the chicken for pork and it is a great recipe too. I even included a recipe for my Creole Coleslaw. I also gave you a less spicy version of my uncle Edwin’s coleslaw I named Canadian Coleslaw on the account that he is from Canada.
I also showed you how to smoke your barbecue in my bullet smoker. I used a Boston Butt and it was moist and tender fall off the bone good. The only thing is that you have to keep checking on it, making sure the fire is still going and it needed constant watching.
Now I am going to show you how to cook it in the oven. This is such a simple recipe. You could be cleaning your house and doing your laundry while this cooks in the oven.
Who am I kidding? I was watching TV, on Pinterest drooling over everywhere while this cooked. I really need to get some time management skills.
Southern Pulled Pork Barbecue
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
2 onions
1 3-6 pound Boston Pork Butt (shoulder)
2 cups barbecue sauce (optional)
Directions:
Combine the brown sugar, chili powder and paprika in a small bowl. Set a aside. Line a dutch oven with sliced onions. Place pork in Dutch oven. Rub mixture all over pork. Place in a 250 degree oven and bake for 5 hours. When the pork is done remove it from the slow cooker and shred it. Add the barbecue sauce. Sometimes I strain the fat and onions from the juices and add the shredded pork. Either way serve on top of a big old toasted roll with some tangy coleslaw if you desire.
Peace be with you,
