Equipment

  • 1 slow cooker

Ingredients
  

Pulled Pork

  • 1 3/4 pound boneless pork butt trim
  • 1 large bottle rootbeer cover the pork in the slow cooker

Coleslaw

  • 1 bag tri-colored coleslaw
  • 1 cup mayonnaise
  • ¼ cup Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • pinch of sugar
  • ½ teaspoon celery seed
  • a few dashes hot sauce
  • Kosher salt and black pepper

Instructions
 

Pulled Pork

  • Place Pork in a slow cooker, cover with the Root Beer; cook on low all day, mine is on 9 hours while I am at work. When you get home, dump the liquid, put the pork back in the slow cooker and you should be able to take 2 forks and shred all of it. Add a container of your favorite BBQ sauce, I use Sweet Baby Rays. Turn the slow cooker on high for 15-20 minutes and serve.  You can add more sauce as needed.

Coleslaw

  • Combine all the above ingredients; add to the coleslaw and let set for 10-15 minutes until it melds.
  • Create your delicious sandwich, get some nice hearty rolls and add a scoop of pork and a scoop of slaw. You are going to need a few napkins
