Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Barbecue Recipe

Nothing beats slow-cooked pulled pork for a party or gathering. The melt-in-your-mouth pork is shredded and served on sandwiches. It's simple and versatile, and your guests can build their sandwiches on toasted soft buns with this carolina coleslaw and more barbecue sauce. Or serve the sandwiches with a creamy coleslaw or this kale and cabbage slaw. If you like heat, add a teaspoonmore or lessof crushed red pepper flakes to the barbecue sauce. For smoky pit barbecue flavor, add some liquid smoke. You may wonder why the recipe calls for either pork shoulder or boston butt. The reason is that boston butt is actually the upper part of the shoulder of the pig. The whole shoulder consists of the butt and the picnic, which is the lower part.
