Re: looking for a pulled pork recipe

I stopped looking for a new pulled pork recipe after trying one by Ree Drummond, that received rave reviews by my family.   

 

In a Dutch oven, I put the pork (usually about 5 lbs of boneless pork loin which is what I prefer over a Boston butt), 2 large quartered onions, 1 or 2 large chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (Ree used a whole can, but my family didn't like that much heat), 1/2 cup brown sugar, and then cover the roast with Coke or Dr Pepper, put the lid on, and pop in the oven----300 degrees for 6 hours.  Do not peek, until the time is up.  I remove the pork and start shredding, while boiling and reducing the liquid in the pot.   Once the liquid has reduced, I add about 1 cup of Sweet Baby Rays BBQ sauce and the shredded pork, heat, and serve.   

 

I also cook pork this way, covered with beef broth for a nice slow roast.
