Sloooooow Cooked Pork Butt Recipes

HOW TO MAKE PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Slow Cooker Method: Place pork in slow cooker and pour coke around it. Cover and cook on LOW (recommended) 8 hours or high for 4-5 hours, until pork is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
• Instant Pot Method: Place pork in instant pot and pour coke around it. Cook on Manual/High pressure for 70 minutes. When timer beeps, allow the pot to naturally release pressure, about 15 minutes longer. Remove lid and shred the meat.

SLOW-ROASTED PORK BUTT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Place the pork shoulder on a cutting board or baking sheet. Whisk together the brown sugar, ginger, paprika, black pepper, salt and garlic in a small bowl. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork butt.
• Pour the beer and orange juice into a large Dutch oven and add the pork. Cook, uncovered, basting with any juices that accumulate in the pan, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 200 degrees F and shreds easily, 6 to 7 hours. Let the pork rest for 10 to 15 minutes, then shred. Serve on brioche buns.

SLOOOOOOW COOKED PORK BUTT

Steps:

• 1) Place the pork butt on your cutting board, fat side up. Using a small, sharp knife, insert the tip into the fat side and make an incision, big and deep enough to insert one of the garlic slices well into the meat (you can use your pinky to push them all the way in). Continue inserting the garlic slices into the fat side until you use them all up. Make sure that they are as evenly spaced as possible. (This also works great for beef pot roasts).
• 2) Distribute the chopped onions over the bottom of your crock pot and add the water. Sprinkle the garlic powder over the water.
• 3) Turn your crock pot to high and wait until the water begins to bubble.
• 4) Place the pork butt into the water, fat side up.
• 5) Reduce heat to low. Pour the bottled beer over the top of the pork and sprinkle the basil and brown sugar over the wet surface.
• 6) Cook the pork butt on low for 8 to 10 hours until it starts to fall away from the bone. (If you went through the expense of buying a boneless pork roast, test it by using two forks and pulling the meat in different directions. If it separates easily, it's ready!).
• 7) Remove the roast from the crock pot and place it in a large bowl. Remove the fat first and discard (I give it to my dogs). Then, pull the meat away from the bone. Again, I use two forks because I don't want to have to wait until it's cool enough to pull apart with my fingers.
• 8) Pour the liquid out of your crock pot leaving the onions at the bottom. Drop the pulled meat into the crock pot and add the barbecue sauce. Cook on high for about one hour stirring well at first and then occasionally.
• 9) SERVE! (We love this stuff on onion Kaiser rolls with cheese).

SLOW-ROASTED PORK BUTT

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Preheat the oven to 450 F. Remove the netting from the pork and trim off some of the fat if needed.
• In a small bowl, combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, and dried thyme, and mix well. Rub the mixture all over the pork.
• Heat a heavy skillet over high heat and sear the roast for a few minutes on all sides. If using a cast-iron or heavy oven-safe skillet, leave the pork in the skillet. Otherwise, transfer the pork to a roasting or baking pan.
• Cover the pork with foil and place the skillet in the oven. Reduce the temperature to 325 F and roast for 3 hours.
• Remove the foil and continue roasting for another hour, or until the roast is pull-apart tender and the inner temperature is around 165 to 180 F.
• Let cool for a few minutes before shredding using 2 forks. Toss with the optional barbecue sauce or serve as is. Enjoy.

FALL-APART-TENDER SLOW-ROAST PORK BUTT

Steps:

• Make small slits all over the roast then insert a whole garlic clove into each slit (this is only optional).
• Place the roast in a greased casserole dish with a lid.
• Sprinkle the roast on all sides with Worcestershire sauce.
• Let sit at room temperature for 1-1/2 hours.
• After 1-1/2 hours spoon any Worcestershire sauce (if any) back on the roast that has accumulated on the bottom of the casserole.
• Using hands press the brown sugar well into the meat on all sides making certain to adhear the sugar to the meat.
• Pour the apple juice into the bottom of the casserole.
• Cover tightly.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F for 15 minutes.
• Place the roast in the oven and immediately reduce the temperature down to 200 degrees F.
• Roast for about 4 hours or until the meat is falling-apart tender (cooking time will vary depending on the size of the roast).
• Stir the salt and black pepper into the juice (do not omit the salt!).
• Slice meat as desired.

SLOW COOKER BBQ PULLED PORK

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the garlic and onion powders, smoked paprika, salt and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork. If you have time, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight. If you don't, no worries; proceed to Step 2.
• Lightly grease the crock of a slow cooker. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sear the pork until golden brown on all sides, about 2 minutes each side. Add onion, if using, to the slow cooker. Add the pork on top of the onion. Pour soda over the pork and set the slow cooker to low for 6 to 8 hours, until the meat has collapsed and shreds easily.
• Drain most of the liquid from the slow cooker and shred the meat directly in the pot. Add about 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce and stir to combine. (At this point, if you like crisp bits in your pulled pork, you can spread the shredded pork on a sheet pan and place under a broiler for a couple minutes then return to the slow cooker.) Taste and add more barbecue sauce, hot sauce, salt or pepper, if desired. Serve with soft rolls and extra sauce on the side.
