Description

Directions

• Grease a large crockpot (I use a 6-quart) with nonstick spray. Line the bottom with the thinly sliced onions (2 medium or 1 very large)
• Place the pork on top.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, chili powder, minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of seasoned salt, and ground cumin. Rub into the pork. Pour the chicken broth over the pork.
• Cook for 6-8 hours on high or 9-11 hours on low.
• Once the meat is completely cooked through, drain the liquid and discard (or eat) the onions.
• Using two forks shred the pork.
• In a blender combine the ketchup, brown sugar, honey, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper.
• Add in 1/2 to 1 full chipotle chiles (to taste and heat preference. Add VERY slowly because its always easy to increase if you want more heat. If you are very sensitive to heat just add the sauce around the chiles in small quantities.)
• Blend until smooth.
• Pour the sauce over the pork and mix until combined.
• Top a bun with a generous amount of the dressed pulled pork.
• Prepare the coleslaw according to directions (click the link) and add the red cabbage.
• Top sandwich with prepared coleslaw and enjoy!
