Slow Cooker Spicy Spring Picnic Pork

Serves: 8
Cook Time: 8 Hrs

These spicy pulled pork sandwiches can make any day feel like a spring picnic…but we say you can serve the slow cooker picnic pork meal ANY season. You can serve it in toasted hamburger buns, rolled into a wrap, or piled on a bed of polenta for a supremely cozy bowl recipe.

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 – 2 ½ pounds of trimmed boneless pork shoulder roast
  • 1 large sweet onion, cut into thin wedges
  • 1 18-20 ounce bottle of hot and spicy barbecue sauce
  • 1 cup of Dr. Pepper
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 8 hamburger buns, split and toasted, or 16 toasted baguette-style French bread slices
  • Desired toppings. Ex: sliced tomatoes, lettuce leaves, pickles, and mustard

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Cut the meat to fit into your slow cooker. Sprinkle it with salt and pepper. Place the onion in your pot, and put the meat on top. Add the bbq sauce and Dr. Pepper.
  2. Cover your pot and cook on the low setting for about 8 to 10 hours, or use the high setting for around 4 to 5 hours. Take out the meat and shred it by using two forks. Take out the onion with a spoon and add it to the meat. Pour the remaining liquid into a glass measuring cup or bowl and skim off the fat. Return the meat mixture to your cooker and stir in enough of the cooking liquid to moisten it.
  3. Serve the mixture in buns with your favorite toppings.

      1. I was taught that if you didn’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. Someone has a question a legit question, and all you can say is duh. I would much rather print it and put it with my recipes and have to write it all down much cleaner

    1. I just did. Highlight recipe, hit copy and then paste into email to yourself.
      Then print your email and there you have it. I had to do picture separately but do the
      same way. Love pot roasts and so filling.

    2. I take photos of only the recipes I want then print those out. If you are able to rearrange the recipes to take out ads and extraneous parts, then copy the photos and delete parts you don’t want on an iPad’s Pages.

    3. Hi Janet. I’m on my cell phone and I can copy/paste the recipe. Try it! You can then paste it into your email or into a word doc and save it wherever you want or print it too. Hope this helps

    4. Try touching the 3 lines on the lower right of the page, a group of icons will appear to allow you to SHARE….
      Then you should be able to send yourself a rext message link with only that page so you can print out that one recipe. That’s what worked for me.

  1. Roni here. I, too, hate when I can’t copy these recipes. I did finally manage the burito bowl one. What I did was highlight the printing I wanted copied. To the right of my screen, a listing came up and I clicked on ‘print’. Then to the left of the screen appeared the actual description of how I would want it to print. 8X11, etc, single page, back to back, etc and I clicked ‘single sheet’ and at the bottom of the screen in a big square, I then clicked “print”. The only thing that happened that I didn’t like was # 3 of the directions was omitted. I just had to write 2 sentences about shredding chicken and I was done. I wish I knew the entire answer of why they show these things and don’t allow the printing to take place. ?? Hope this was helpful.

  2. You can print it. Just go to the 3 little dots at the top right hand corner of laptop. Select Print. Choose the pages you want to print. There you go. Add to your recipes. 🙂
