🥗Healthier: homemade barbecue sauce

1

Pat your pork butt dry and sprinkle with kosher salt, garlic powder, Tomador and cumin. Use your hands to massage it into the meat.

2

Get a large cast iron skillet super hot and sear the outside of the meat - on all sides.

3

Add the onion to the bottom of the crock pot or slow cooker then add your pork butt.

4

Add the Dr Pepper, whisky, liquid smoke, garlic, brown sugar and chipotles to your blender. Blend until smooth, then add to crock pot.

5

Turn the crockpot on high for 6 hours and let it work its magic. If cooking on low, cook for 10-12 hours.

6

Once done, carefully remove the pork butt from the liquid and let it rest for a few minutes before pulling it apart. Return the shredded pork to the crock pot and serve with buns, on tacos, or however you wish.
