BBQ Pulled Pork

Since everyone keeps asking me for my pulled pork recipe I thought I'd post it. It's really easy, and tastes great! This is true comfort food and is a great crock pot recipe. A nice dish to put together in the morning, and have something warm waiting for you when get home in the evening. Hope you enjoy!

What you'll need:

1 Pork Shoulder (5lb. or any size you like)
1 Bottle of BBQ Sauce
1 Jar Apricot Preserves
1 Large Sweet Onion, sliced
BBQ Seasoning Blend

How to make:

Using a crock pot, place onions on bottom of pot. Put pork shoulder on top of onions, and season meat with BBQ Seasoning blend. In a bowl, mix together the jar of apricot preserves and BBQ sauce. Pour mixture over meat. Cover with lid, and set on low for 8 hours.

Once cooked, transfer meat to a cutting board and shred with a fork. Meat should just fall apart. Make sure bone is removed, and put meat back into sauce mixture that is in the crock pot. Serve on a fresh roll, or just as it is. Either way it's sure to be fantastic!

Tips:

***Depending on how large of a shoulder you buy you may need to adjust cooking time. Every time I've made this dish, it usually takes 8 hours and comes out fork tender.

***Great dish for parties because it can stay warm in the crock pot, and makes a lot.
