10-Spice Slow Cooker Pulled Pork
- Spice Rub:
- 1 tablespoon ground black pepper
- 1-2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon dried oregano
- 4 tablespoons paprika
- 2 tablespoons table salt
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground white pepper
- 1 (4 1/2 pound) bone-in pork shoulder or 3 1/2 lb. boneless
- 1/2-1 teaspoon liquid smoke (optional)
- 2 cups barbecue sauce
- 1. Mix all spice rub ingredients in small bowl.
- 2. Massage spice rub into meat. Wrap tightly in double layer of plastic wrap; refrigerate for at least 3 hours. (For stronger flavor, the roast can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.)
- 3. Unwrap roast and place it in slow cooker liner. Add liquid smoke, if using, and 1/4 cup water. Turn slow cooker to low and cook for 8-10 hours, until meat is fork-tender.
- 4. Transfer roast to cutting board; discard liquid in liner. "Pull" by tearing meat into thin shreds with two forks or your fingers. Discard fat.
- 5. Place shredded meat back in slow cooker liner; toss with 1 cup barbecue sauce, and heat on low for 30-60 minutes, until hot. Serve with additional barbecue sauce.
