How to Make Easy Pork Barbecue

Easy and delicious, this recipe takes almost no time to prepare.

This mouthwatering pork barbecue is an easy weeknight meal. It also works well for church dinners or family reunions. It's easy and delicious, and requires little work on your part. The basic idea is to cook the pork slowly, until it's literally falling apart. Serve it with coleslaw and slider buns for a tasty meal that you're whole family, or your guests, will enjoy.

Things You'll Need

• 3 pound pork shoulder or Boston butt
• Honey barbecue sauce (any brand)
• Brown sugar
• Crock pot
• Sharp knife

Instructions

1. Remove any excess fat from the pork shoulder or butt by trimming it off with a sharp knife. If you don't trim before cooking, the resulting dish is very greasy.

2. Place the pork butt in the slow cooker and cover it with your favorite barbecue sauce. Roll the meat in the sauce to cover it evenly. Set the crock pot on low and put the lid on tightly. Let the meat cook for 6 to 8 hours, until the meat is falling off the bone.

3. Take the bone off the meat slowly, pulling until the meat it is stringy. Add more barbecue sauce if it is looking dry. If you are balancing a spicy sauce, sprinkle brown sugar (to taste) into the crock pot and stir until mixed well. Cover and let the meat cook for 30 more minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips & Warnings

• Always use caution when cooking. Use pot holders to prevent burns.
