BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches (Bar-B-Que Barbecue)

Marg (CaymanDesigns)'s Note:

This meal is one we always eat too much of. The sauce really makes the dish. Once I tried Sweet Baby Ray's I've never bought another kind of BBQ sauce. I serve with my Sweet, Creamy Coleslaw #100526.

• Total Time: 10 hrs 30 mins
• Prep Time: 30 mins
• Cook Time: 10 hrs

Ingredients:

Servings: 8

• 1 ½-2 lbs pork shoulder
• 1 cup water
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 (18 ounce) bottle sweet baby ray barbecue sauce

Directions:

1. Place the pork shoulder roast in the crockpot on low (on high if frozen) with 1 cup of water, basil and rosemary for about 8 hours (can be done overnight, use low even if frozen).
2. Remove any skin or bone.
3. Pull the meat apart into small pieces, I use forks, and return it to the crock pot.
4. Add a bottle of BBQ sauce and a little water (1/4 c.) and stir to coat.
5. Continue to cook on low for an hour or two.
6. Serve on hamburger buns with coleslaw.

I made this today for dinner and it was an absolute hit with the whole family. I don't like northern (sweet) style BBQ sauce, so I used Stubbs, which is more Carolina style. I also added a little dry sherry to the water at the beginning. I will use this recipe over and over!

I can't believe I have never reviewed this recipe, as we have been using it for at least two years. I love the simplicity of this recipe. The one change that I have made to it was to add just a bit of liquid smoke, that is just an issue of personal preference, the flavor of the pork when making the recipe is delicious. Thanks so much for sharing.

Very simple recipe that produces great results. I left this on low over night, and then added an onion, a red and yellow pepper and some mushrooms for the final 4 hours before serving. Turned out great.
