Delicious! I followed the recipe almost exactly. I rubbed the roast with a little bit of vegetable oil and sprinkled some Butt Rub on it. I also added a bit of liquid smoke to the other ingredients, which I did mix together and then poured over the meat. I did quarter the roast to make it easier to pull apart when it was done. Cooked on low in the slow cooker for about 7 hours. I used a small bit of the sauce and thickened it with cornstarch and water. Then mixed everything together and put on toasted buttered rolls. A keeper!!
Great flavor! But wasn’t done to “pull” consistency after 7 hours on low. Would have helped if I had cut the pork butt into several pieces before putting it into crock pot. I’m going to make this again!
Made it as recipe states. My family loved it. If they were to give it a grade it would be an *A*!! Will definitely be making it again.
I modified it minimally but also had issue with the sauce thickening.
This was delicious. I totally followed the recipe. The sauce did not thicken but it didn’t bother the taste. Next time, I will heat the sauce in a pot on the stove until it thickens then add the pulled meat back in.
Love it I added a few drops of liquid smoke just needed a little less sugar for me I’m diabetic
I decided to make it in my pressure cooker set to slow cook. I cooked it for 9 hours. It came out better than I could have hoped. Super tender and served on potato rolls. Will definitely do it again.
It took a little longer than expected because of the size of the pork shoulder we used, but turned out juicy with great flavor.
Very good and very easy. Will make again.
This is by far the best recipe for pulled pork. I followed the recipe exactly. A hint: mix all the liquid ingredients and spices in a bowl first, then pour over the pork.
We loved the flavor! Will make again.
made it as written, it was weird had flavor but didnt have flavor if that makes sense, add alot of salt and Tabasco, even put the onion on like other reviewer did, MEH
I chopped the onions instead of slicing them. I also added salt and extra bbq sauce. I was AMAZING.
This recipe is now a favorite! It is absolutely delicious!
Now a steady favorite of ours! Easy and delicious! I double the garlic, but other than that it’s just about perfect.
made it for a Church group everyone loved it. it’s a keeper
Scrumptious!

Delicious recipe! I made it exactly as the recipe suggests and it came out great.
