Crockpot Pulled Pork Braised in Cola

  1. In a small bowl, combine all of the dry spice ingredients for the rub.
  2. Liberally season the pork roast all over with the rub.
  3. You may have extra left over, I save it for later use in an empty spice jar.
  4. Slice onion in half crosswise, then cut those slices in half again so that you have 4 large pieces, or dice it if you prefer.
  5. Separate the onion into rings.
  6. Lay almost all of the onion in the bottom of the crockpot, leaving a few rings for the top.
  7. Place roast on top of the onions and lay the rest of the onion on top of the roast.
  8. Pour cola and 2 tablespoons of cider vinegar over roast.
  9. Cover, turn on low, and cook for 5 hours.
  10. After 5 hours check to see if a fork slides into and out of the pork easily.
  11. If it does you are ready to shred, if not check it again in 30 minutes.
  12. When the roast is ready, remove it from the crockpot.
  13. Pour out the juices into a large measuring cup or bowl.
  14. Set aside.
  15. Remove onion from crockpot.
  16. Either use them to top sandwiches, or slice them up and add them later to the shredded pork.
  17. Using two forks, shred pork and return it to the crockpot.
  18. Mix 1 cup of BBQ sauce with 1/2 cup of juices, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of cider vinegar.
  19. Pour over the shredded pork and toss gently to coat the pork.
  20. If it isnt wet enough, add a little more juice, if you like it thicker, add more BBQ sauce.
  21. Keep it on warm until you are ready.
  22. Then serve and enjoy!
  23. A 2-pound pork roast will feed a family of four nicely, 3 pounds should feed a family of 6.
