1st snow fall = crockpot time!

We got our first snow fall in Berkley, MA this morning... It wasn't much and dissipated quickly into rain, but it was definitely snow!  If the hard frosts of last week didn't make me want to pull out the crock pot, this sure did. I should have done a stew, but I had got a good deal on some pork shoulders/Boston Butt and decided to do pulled pork sandwiches. It's probably one of the easiest crock pot dishes ever to make -it just requires time.

BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches

1 pork shoulder roast or Boston Butt (around 2 1/2lbs)
14oz of BBQ sauce (I only use Sweet Baby Ray's)
 1 medium onion, chopped
1 Tbsp. lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
1 Tsp. brown sugar

Hamburger rolls, salt, pepper

Place pork into crock pot, season lightly with salt and pepper. Cover, and cook on LOW for 10-12 hours, or on HIGH for 5-6 hours until done.

Remove pork from crock pot and place in a shallow pan. Using 2 forks shred the pork.

Return shredded pork into crock pot along with the BBQ sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar and onion. Mix well. Cover crock pot, and cook for 2 hours on LOW, or 1 hour on HIGH.

Serve on Hamburger buns.


I love this great over-night recipe. It goes extremely well with a garden salad or coleslaw for a side.
