This was great. We served this last night at a church dinner. I cooked 35lbs of pork shoulder. I did one in the crockpot on high it took six hours for a whole shoulder. The other four I did in the oven at 300 degrees. The took only about 5 hours. I did add some water to the sauce and covered them with foil. I found that the sauce came out much nicer in the ones in the oven. The sauce in the crock pot was quite watery, whereas the others carmalized nicely and stayed somewhat thicker. Excellent recipie. We got rave reviews. The flavour of the sauce was great! Thanks Olga Drozd. BTW we served this with Red Green Slaw for Pulled pork Sandwichs (#19623)

I am very surprised at how much I liked this! Hubby and son loved it too. I wasn't sure at all how this would turn out, but it was moist and delicious and so, so easy to make. Great sauce! This recipe is definitely suited for those who like their pulled pork soaked in sauce; if you want it roasted with just the sauce on the side, this isn't for you. I shredded the pork after 6 hours on High (I had a 4 lb roast and it had a small bone in it; I aggressively trimmed most of the fat off it, too, before putting it in the crockpot) then returned the meat to the crockpot. I tasted it and it definitely needed salt, so I added a fair bit of kosher salt and then let it go for another 20 minutes or so. I'll be making this again!

We made this a few weeks ago and LOVED it! The house smelled amazing all day. We skipped the liquid smoke (didn't have any) and were a tablespoon or so short on the chili sauce so we made that up with ketchup. Dinner was great and even the 9 year old scarfed it up. We plan to make it again for guests this weekend.
