Five carefully selected ingredients give this shredded pork recipe its southern appeal. All you need is:

- Apple cider vinegar – helps break down the meat making it more tender and also gives it a sour taste
- Liquid smoke – brings the flavor of the smoker directly to your slow cooker!
- Brown sugar – is an excellent base for a dry massage and brings some extra sweetness
- Cajun seasoning: ideal for adding spicy flavorings that balance
sweet brown sugar
Behind the ingredients
Apple cider vinegar and brown sugar give pork roast that distinctive Carolina barbecue flavor. Liquid smoke emulates the taste of the classic well barbecue, so you don’t need a pit barbecue in the backyard.
And Cajun seasoning increases the overall appeal, uniting all other flavors.
After a day of slow cooking in its slow cooker, mixing with the acid-salty-sweet ingredients, the pork roast is broken down into pieces of pork ecstasy.

FAQ
What is the best cut of pork
for this recipe?
In this recipe, I like to use roast to pig butts, but you can also use shoulder roast or Boston butt. I would look for a cut of pork that has a little fat, but not an overabundant amount. Fat will create a great flavor, but you also don’t want to eat large chunks of fat, or have to choose them after cooking.
Why is my clay pot meat so hard?
If your pork is still hard, that means it hasn’t been cooked enough. There are connective tissues within the meat that need to be completely broken down and melted into the meat, which makes the pork so tender that it falls apart with a touch of fork.
How long is this recipe?
Store it in an airtight container, in the fridge, for three to five days. After that, it is better to freeze pork. If it is well wrapped, you can freeze it for up to six months.
