DR SPICY BBQ PORK

I served this at my son's graduation party and kept it warm in a slow cooker after roasting it in the oven. The pork is superb by itself or piled high on rolls. For a classic combo, serve it with warm biscuits and coleslaw. -Michelle Gauer, Spicer, Minnesota

Categories     main-dish

Time 6h10m

Yield 18 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 onions, peeled and quartered
1 whole pork butt (pork shoulder roast)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 11-ounce can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
2 cans pop (I use Dr Pepper)
4 packed tablespoons brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Start by placing the onion quarters in the bottom of a pot. Sprinkle the pork with salt and pepper, and then place on top of the onions. Pour the chipotle peppers over the top, and then crack open the cans of pop and pour them over the whole thing. Add the brown sugar to the liquid and stir.
  • Cover the pot, put in the oven and cook for at least 6 hours, flipping the roast 2 or 3 times during the cooking process. When it's done, the pork will be dark and weird and wonderful. It'll also be fork-tender. That's when you know it's done.
  • Remove the meat from the pot and shred completely. Then return the meat to the pot and keep in the juice until you need it. Divine!

SPICY DR. PEPPER SHREDDED PORK



Spicy Dr. Pepper Shredded Pork image

This recipe comes from The Pioneer Woman, Ree Drummond. First of all: pork butt. It isn't a pork butt at all, but a pork shoulder. Second, it's just a wonderful cut of meat. It cooks up moist and tender and results in so much meat, you can either feed a crowd or stretch the meat into at least two or three different meals for your fam damily. this fun and sweet/spicy concoction of Dr. Pepper and chipotle peppers really did turn out to be a lovely combination. If you haven't ever tried it, cook up a pork shoulder sometime soon. You'll be amazed at how much you can do with the stuff.

Categories     Pork

Time 6h5m

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 whole large onion
1 whole roast, Pork Shoulder ("pork Butt")
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 (11 ounce) can chipotle chiles in adobo
Dr. Pepper cola, 2 (12 oz.)
2 tablespoons brown sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
  • Peel the onion and cut it into wedges. Lay them in the bottom of a large dutch oven.
  • If you're so inclined, rinse the pork. Generously salt and pepper the pork roast, then set it on top of the onions in the pan.
  • Pour the can of chipotle peppers over the pork (include the sauce.) Pour in both cans of Dr Pepper. Add brown sugar to the juice and stir inches.
  • Place lid tightly on pot, then set pot in the oven. Cook for at least six hours, turning roast two or three times during the cooking process. Check meat after six hours; it should be absolutely falling apart (use two forks to test.) If it's not falling apart, return to the oven for another hour.
  • Remove meat from pot and place on a cutting board or other work surface. Use two forks to shred meat, discarding large pieces of fat. Strain as much of the fat off the top of the cooking liquid as you can and discard it. Return the shredded meat to the cooking liquid, and keep warm until ready to serve. (You can also refrigerate the meat and liquid separately, then remove hardened fat once it's cold. Then heat up the liquid on the stovetop and return the meat to the liquid to warm up.
  • Serve on warm flour tortillas. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, grated cheese, avocado slices, salsa, and whatever else you'd like.
