Slow Cooker Pulled Pork

Step 1

Put the pork roast into the slow cooker with the fatty side up.

Step 2

Sprinkle the roast liberally with salt, pepper and garlic powder. Add just 1/4 cup of water around the roast. Cover and cook for 7 hours.

Step 3

Remove the roast from the cooker and discard the visible pieces of fat.

Step 4

Pour the cooking juices into a fat separator cup and set it aside while you pull the pork.

Step 5

Using two forks, “pull” the pork into shreds.

Step 6

Return the pulled meat to the cooker along with the de-fatted cooking juices and barbecue sauce. Cook for an additional hour.

Step 7

Serve on toasted buns.
