Equipment

  • Crockpot

Ingredients
  

  • 2 lbs Pork Butt
  • 1 large white onion chopped
  • BBQ Sauce
  • 1 small can of Dr. Pepper 7.5 Fl Oz
  • 1 teaspoon salt and pepper
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon  garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Tabasco sauce for extra heat (I added some to my sandwich after)

Instructions
 

  • Add your pork butt, Dr. Pepper, onions, andseasonings to your slow cooker. Cook on high for 5-6 hours. Checking the porkbutt often to make sure your crockpot isn’t cooking it too fast.
  • Remove your pork after its done cooking anddrain the liquid. I used a pasta strainer and make sure you keep the onions in.Only the LIQUID should be gone. Pop the pork butt back into the crockpot andshred. I used two forks, and it cramped up my hands but it’s all I had. You canbuy a tool on Amazon that shreds meat easily.
  • Next, add your BBQ sauce and brown sugar to theshredded pork and extra seasoning if you want.
  • Cook for another 20 minutes and enjoy!
