  • 1 teaspoon onion Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup BBQ Sauce

  • After the pork has cooked, remove it to a cutting board or plate and let it rest for 15 minutes.
  • Shred with 2 forks to pull the meat apart. Add more BBQ sauce if you prefer.
  • Serve warm with buns or tacos.

Notes

  • If your pork shoulder is frozen, you need to thaw it in the fridge completely before adding it to the slow cooker.
