Funday Sunday: Pulled Pork

My mom introduced me to the tasty deliciousness of pulled pork sandwiches this summer and we've been making them ever since (well twice anyways). It's great for company as it's made in the crock pot and feeds a lot of people. Try it this fall, you won't be disappointed.

Perfect Pulled Pork

-5 lbs, boneless pork butt shoulder

-1 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika (mom found this finally at Target)

-2 tsp. black pepper

-1 tsp. cayenne pepper ( I omit this)

-1 tsp. dried thyme

-1 tsp. garlic powder

-1/2 tsp. salt

-1 c. water

buns

Combine all seasonings in a small bowl and rub evenly over roast. Place meant in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add water. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 4-5 hours or until pork is very tender.

Plce pork on large cutting board or platter and let rest for 10-15 minutes. Pull, slice or chop to serve. Serve in buns with your favorite barbecue sauce on top. Yum!

Serves 16-20
