Serve from the crock pot on large buns.

When I got the pork out of the fridge to get ready for the crockpot I read the label and was confused.... what the heck was a pork picnic!?! I obviously grabbed the wrong thing at the store. I was so happy to find a recipe posted on here using it in the same manner for which I intended!!! My pork picnic was a little over 4 pounds. I followed your recipe and even your suggestion to use recipe #132602 - Wonderful! Everyone loved it! I found that the pork was done in about 6 hours and I only let it cook shredded in the sauce for about an hour or so. Perfect!
