Apple Cider Pulled Pork
- 1 (7-to 8-pound) bone-in pork butt
- 6 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
- 1 medium onion, sliced
- Kosher salt
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 cups apple cider
- Rolls
- Score the skin of the pork with a sharp knife.
- Make 1-inch deep incisions with a pairing knife all over the pork and insert 1 slice of garlic in each incision.
- Season the pork with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 3/4 teaspoon pepper.
- In a 5-to 6-quart crock pot, heat the oil over high heat until hot.
- Sear the pork butt, turning once, until browned, 6 to 8 minutes total.
- Transfer the pork to a plate and stir the onion into the crock pot.
- Brown the onion, scraping up any browned bits, until golden, about 6 minutes.
- Place the pork back in the crockpot along with the cider and cover the crock pot.
