Crockpot pulled pork

Posted by: Trish Smith, admin In: Free recipe guide

A few days ago, my sister-in-law bought us a pork roast as part of a two-for-one deal (I love free food!), and yesterday we cooked it with some olive oil and rosemary. It was mm mm good, but even with my sister-in-law and her husband helping us, we couldn’t finish it off. So, pulled pork! I used the crockpot, and added the following sauce to it:

(via www.barbecue-smoker-recipes.com)

I made a slight change; instead of cooking the onions in the butter, i sliced them and dumped them in the crockpot with the rest of the ingredients because they’re getting cooked inthe crockpot anyway. I also substituted some whole frozen hot peppers I had for the seeded and chopped chiles. That way, it lends heat to the sauce but I can remove them when it’s time to serve. According to the source, this is a sweet sauce.

  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 2 red chiles seeded and chopped, or 2 whole chiles (remove before serving)
  • 1 1/2 cups ketchup
  • 3 tablespoons molasses
  • 3 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons prepared mustard (the stuff you put on hot dogs, not the powdered spice)
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Juice of a lemon(about 3 Tbsp)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Method:

Slice onions; dump them and the rest of the ingredients into the crockpot. Add your pork and cook on high 5 hours (if the meat is raw) or on low or “keep warm” a couple of hours (if the meat is already cooked). You’ll know it’s done when the meat falls apart when you separate it with a fork. Enjoy!
