Pork Shoulder Does The Work For You

A pork shoulder is one of the few cuts that gets better the longer you ignore it. You season it in the morning, come back at supper, and it falls apart with two forks.

Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection on the busiest nights of the week, and when one pot has to feed a crowd or turn into two or three different dinners.

Every recipe here is built around that one cut, from Crockpot Pulled Pork and Slow Cooker Pork Sandwiches to Midwest pulled pork, pulled pork and sweet potato mash, and Pulled Pork Mac n Cheese Sammies.

Quick Tips

1
Buy bone-in when you can
A bone-in pork roast stays juicier over 8 hours in the crockpot, and the bone slips right out when it's done.
2
Season the night before
Rub the shoulder with BBQ seasoning or a dry rub and refrigerate 8 to 12 hours so the salt works its way in.
3
Add vinegar to the pot
A half cup of apple cider vinegar cuts the richness and keeps sweet barbecue sauce from tasting flat.
4
Sauce after you shred
Pull the meat, skim the fat off the cooking liquid, then stir back about a cup of it with your sauce so nothing dries out.
