Ingredients

  • β€’2 lbs pork shoulder
  • β€’1 tbsp olive oil
  • β€’2 tsp smoked paprika
  • β€’2 tsp garlic powder
  • β€’1 tsp onion powder

  • β€’1/2 cup coleslaw (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your slow cooker on low heat.

  2. 2

    Rub the pork shoulder with olive oil, then evenly coat it with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 3

    Place the seasoned pork shoulder into the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the meat is tender and easily pulled apart.

  4. 4

    Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.

  5. 5

    Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker and mix in the BBQ sauce until well combined.

  6. 6

    Let the mixture sit for an additional 20-30 minutes to heat the BBQ sauce and allow flavors to meld.

  8. 8

    Top with coleslaw if using, and serve immediately.
