Preparation

Pork Preparation

1. Marinate the Pork

In a large bowl, combine smoked paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork shoulder. In a separate bowl, mix apple cider vinegar and liquid smoke, then pour it over the pork. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

2. Cook the Pork

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C). Place the marinated pork in a roasting pan and cover it tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 6-8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shredded with a fork. Alternatively, you can cook it in a slow cooker on low for 8-10 hours.

3. Shred the Pork

Once cooked, remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 30 minutes. Shred the pork using two forks, discarding any excess fat.

BBQ Sauce Preparation

4. Make the BBQ Sauce

In a saucepan over medium heat, combine ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir well and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and let it cook for about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened.

Assembly

5. Cook the Bacon

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy. Drain on paper towels.

6. Assemble the Sandwich

On each toasted burger bun, layer shredded pulled pork, a generous spoonful of BBQ sauce, a slice or two of bacon, and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese. Top with the other half of the bun.
