Super Simple Pulled Pork in Slow Cooker

Need a really, really easy recipe for cool Fall Football days? Pulled pork in the slow cooker.

Ingredients: 3-4 lbs pork shoulder (leave untrimmed for most flavor) and one can of root beer (not diet, you need the sugar). Put shoulder in slow cooker, pour root beer over it, close and cook for 8 hours. Remove from slow cooker onto cutting board or work surface. Drain & throw away juice & fat from in the slow cooker, rinse out so you can reuse.

When the pork is cool enough to handle, shred using two forks or your hands. It should be falling apart. Put shredded pork back in slow cooker. Add an entire bottle of your favorite barbecue sauce (pork will absorb the sauce so don't worry if it looks really wet at first). For best / more flavor add hot sauce or Sriracha to taste, some salt and vinegar for a little tang. Mix well - put slow cooker back on low or warm to reheat to desired temperature.

Serve on favorite buns with some Cole Slaw on top.
