Method

Pork Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    Trim any excess fat from the pork shoulder and cut it into large chunks. In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub this seasoning mixture all over the pork pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork

    Place the seasoned pork in a slow cooker. Add apple cider vinegar and water. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shredded.

  3. 3

    Shred the Pork

    Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and let it rest for a few minutes. Shred the pork using two forks and return it to the slow cooker to mix with the juices.

Assembly and Serving

  1. 4

    Prepare the Buns

    Slice the hamburger buns in half. If desired, toast them lightly on a skillet or grill.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Sandwiches

    Place 1/4 lb of pulled pork on the bottom half of each bun. Drizzle barbecue sauce over the pork to taste. If using, top with coleslaw.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Place the top half of the bun on each sandwich and serve warm with extra barbecue sauce on the side.
