SLOW COOKER CAROLINA BBQ

Miss the tarheel tradition of a pig pickin'? Then find yourself a crock pot, a big pork shoulder, some cider vinegar and get cooking! While ground and crushed red pepper will provide the basic heat - go the extra mile and find some Texas Pete (or Trappey's) pepper sauce to bring the taste of Carolina to your kitchen.

NORTH CAROLINA PORK BBQ (FOR SLOW COOKER)



North Carolina Pork BBQ (For Slow Cooker) image

This recipe came with my slow cooker cookbook. I absolutely love it and you can make it as spicy as you like! Everyone loves it. Serve on a bun with coleslaw. You can even put the coleslaw on the sandwich and it's great! Ive used many kinds of pork roast, but it's great with pork loin--no bones or fat to worry about.

EASTERN NC PULLED PORK BBQ IN A CROCK POT



Eastern NC Pulled Pork BBQ in a Crock Pot image

It's the best way to make BBQ short of having a pig pickin'! Eastern NC BBQ done the right way. No tomato in sight! The taste reminds me of Smithfield's, which is the best BBQ in my opinion. This BBQ goes great in a sandwich topped with a scoop of sweet coleslaw, side of hushpuppies, and sweet tea. Mmmmmm. Enjoy!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 12h20m

Yield 18-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup white vinegar
1 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce (e.g. Tabasco(TM)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 large vidalia onion (or other type of sweet onion)
8 -12 lbs pork shoulder
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup apple cider vinegar
dry rub seasonings (any good one) (optional)

Steps:

  • Quarter and slice the onion into little arches. Place about half an onion's worth in the crock pot as to line the bottom.
  • Place the whole pork shoulder into the crock-pot. Take just a small amount of sauce to dampen the shoulder.
  • Cover with a generous coating of spice rub, if desired.
  • Top with remaining onion slices. Take 75% of the sauce and pour it around the pork shoulder. Then pour the white and cider vinegars around the pork.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8-12 hours.
  • When cooking is complete, remove cover and then carefully pull the bone out of the pork shoulder (BE CAREFUL! IT WILL BE HOT!).
  • Carefully remove the meat and half of the onions from the crock-pot and put into a large bowl, leaving behind as much of the cooked vinegar solution behind as possible. A slotted spoon may be needed.
  • Then with two forks (or your hands once the meat has cooled a little, if you are so inclined), "pull" (shred) the meat.
  • Pour in most of the remaining, "uncooked" sauce, saving a little to add to BBQ sandwiches as desired. (Personally, I prefer using Texas Pete on my sandwiches.).
  • Serve as sandwich or BBQ plate.
  • Enjoy!

CAROLINA-STYLE PORK BBQ SANDWICHES



Carolina-Style Pork BBQ Sandwiches image

Arguably, some of the best 'cue in the country can be found in North Carolina, where two distinct types of slow-cooked pig prevail. The first is Eastern barbecue, which is distinguished by slow-cooking a whole hog and including both the white and dark meat in chopped sandwiches and platters. Eastern 'cue boasts just a hint of vinegar and red pepper, which is added to the meat mix rather than used as a sauce. Western North Carolina 'cue (aka Lexington-style) is made from pork shoulder only. In addition to incorporating plenty of vinegar, sugar, and spices, it also mixes in a good amount of ketchup to create an actual sauce for the pork. This slow-cooker recipe falls somewhere in between.

Yield Serves 10 to 12 (about 8 cups of meat)

Number Of Ingredients 24

For the pork:
2 large onions, sliced
5-pound boneless pork shoulder roast
6 cloves garlic, smashed
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons dried red pepper flakes
1 cup cider vinegar
1 cup apple cider or apple juice
For the sauce:
2 cups cooking liquid (reserved from the slow-cooked pork)
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup ketchup
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Salt and black pepper
For assembly:
Buns, slaw, and hot sauce

Steps:

  • Make the pork:
  • Spray the inside of a slow cooker with cooking spray.
  • Put the onions in the slow cooker. Make slits in the pork roast and insert the garlic cloves. Rub salt, pepper, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes into the meat. Place the pork in the slow cooker fat side up and pour in the vinegar and apple cider. Cover and cook on low for at least 10 hours and up to 12 hours, until the meat is falling-apart tender.
  • Transfer the meat to a large bowl and shred it with two forks. Set aside.
  • Make the sauce:
  • Pour 2 cups of the pan juices into a measuring cup; discard any leftover juices still in the pot. Let cool and skim off any visible fat. Pour this liquid into a saucepan. Add the water, ketchup, cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, paprika, dry mustard, and red pepper flakes. Bring to a boil and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker and add 1 cup of the sauce mixture (more if you like it wet). Give it a stir and set the slow cooker to warm until ready to serve.
  • Assemble the sandwiches:
  • Serve the pork straight from the slow cooker with a slotted spoon, along with buns, slaw, and hot sauce. Serve the additional sauce on the side.
