Step 1

Sprinkle the roast with salt and pepper on all sides.

Step 2

Heat a heavy pot or dutch oven over medium high heat.

Step 3

Add the butter to the pot.

Step 4

Once the butter is completely melted and sizzling, add the meat to the pot and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned.

Step 5

Add the remaining ingredients and stir.

Step 6

Cover the pot with a tight fitting lid and simmer on medium-low heat for 4 hours, or place in the oven at 350 degrees and cook for 4 hours, checking on it hourly. If the mixture appears dry during the cooking process, add 1/3 cup of water if necessary.

Step 7

Once the roast is fork tender, remove from the heat and shred the meat into bite sized pieces – discarding any fat or gristle.

Step 8

Add the meat back to the pan gravy and serve hot.
