Slow Cooked BBQ Pork Shoulder

BBQ slow cooked pork shoulder dinner

Expectations:

The prep time on this is very quick (10 minutes), especially if you have a dry rub on hand.    The cooking time is long (8 – 9 1/2  hours), but happens in slow cooker magic land where you don’t have to oversee every little detail while it’s transforming into something wonderful.

Equipment:

I make this in a slow cooker, you’ll need a large (i.e. 6+ quart) size.

Here’s what you’ll need for ingredients:

Note:  It’s great if you can do this the day before, but if you can’t, no worries – still delicious.

Note:  I often do this the night before and just save the onions in a sealed container in the fridge.  Then it’s incredibly fast to pull this together before you dash out of the door.

Steps to put this on your table:
