A flavorful and tender pulled pork recipe made in a slow cooker, perfect for sandwiches or as a main dish.
Combine all the rub ingredients in a bowl and mix well.
Mix the rub thoroughly to ensure even distribution of flavors.
Rub the mixture all over the pork shoulder, covering it completely.
Let the rubbed pork rest in the refrigerator for at least an hour for better flavor infusion.
Slice the onions and place half in the bottom of the slow cooker.
Layering the onions creates a flavorful base for the pork.
Place the pork shoulder on top of the onions, then cover with the remaining onions. Pour the ginger ale over the top.
Ensure the ginger ale covers the bottom to prevent sticking.
Cook on low for 10-12 hours, turning the pork once halfway through.
Low and slow cooking ensures tender, flavorful pork.
Remove the pork and onions from the slow cooker. Shred the pork using two forks, discarding any fat or bones.
Shred the pork while it's still warm for easier handling.
Return the shredded pork and onions to the slow cooker. Stir in the barbecue sauce.
Adjust the amount of sauce to your taste preference.
Cook on low for an additional 1-2 hours to let the flavors meld.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Serve the pulled pork on buns with your favorite toppings.
Pair with coleslaw or pickles for a classic touch.
