Pork BBQ (My momma's recipe)

Years ago we had "incident" with a crockpot roast when Tom and I were first dating. So that Christmas Tom bought my mom a "Slow Cookers For Dummies" cookbook. As hysterical as this was and still is, we have gotten so many wonderful recipes out of it. Just for the record the recipe my mom followed was a flop, she is a AMAZING cook! :) Anyway, this recipe is from that cookbook. We have made this BBQ for at least 1000 people (seriously) since then. So cheers to mom for the tough roast over a decade ago! :) I'd say it was a blessing, right?

So per Kristina's request, here is the super easy BBQ recipe.

ingredients:
2 tbsp olive oil
3-4 lb boston butt, fat trimmed
1 large onion, sliced thin
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups BBQ sauce ( we use Cattlemans from Sam's Club)
1/2 cup water


1. Lightly spray a 4-6 quart slow cooker with oil of your choice.

2. Heat olive oil in a large non stick skillet over medium/high heat. Add pork and brown evening on all sides. Place in the crockpot.

3. Add onion and garlic to the skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes. Add BBQ sauce and water, then simmer. Pour over meat.

4. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours. Remove meat from the crockpot and shred with a fork.


*This is also wonderful frozen. We make a full batch and divide in gallon size ziplocks. This BBQ goes a long way and you could probably feed 40 people. :)
