Crock Pot Pulled Pork - Delish!


Slow Cooked Pulled Pork is a family favorite and super delish!



  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 
  • Pinch of cayenne pepper
  • 5 pounds boneless pork butt or shoulder
  • 4 cups water
  • 2 cups of your favorite barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 spicy brown mustard
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 10 to 12 soft hamburger-style buns


In a small bowl, mix chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Rub the spice mixture on all sides of pork. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.

Cut pork butt in half; place in a slow cooker and add water. Set on low heat and cook for 10 hours. 

Transfer from slow cooker to a roasting pan and shred with two forks, removing any large pieces of fat. Pour the broth into a heatproof pitcher or large fat separator, and skim off the fat.

Put the pork back into the slow cooker. Combine the barbecue sauce, mustard, honey and 3 cups of the skimmed broth. Stir into pork and cook 2 hours. 

Using a slotted spoon, remove the pork from the slow cooker. Place the meat on a serving platter or on individual buns.
