Pulled Pork Preparation

1

Prepare the Pork

Rub the pork shoulder with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, brown sugar, salt, and black pepper. Place in a slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours or until tender. Once cooked, shred the pork with forks and mix in the whiskey BBQ sauce.

Caramelizing Onions

Caramelize the Onions

Slice the onions thinly. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes until the onions are golden brown and caramelized.
