Ingredients

Instructions

  • Combine the salt, black pepper, brown sugar, paprika and cayenne. Sprinkle over the pork shoulder and rub into the meat.
  • Wrap meat in plastic wrap or put into a resealable baggie or container and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 325 F.
  • Add apple juice, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, liquid smoke and garlic powder to a large Dutch oven and stir.
  • Add the meat to the Dutch oven. Place foil over the top to create a tight seal and cover with the lid.
  • Roast in the oven for 4 hours or until the meat shreds easily, basting with the liquid in the pan every hour.
  • Remove from oven and let stand for 30 minutes.
  • Shred pork with forks, discarding any large fatty pieces.
  • Serve over buns topped with slaw and, optionally, BBQ sauce.
