I made this pulled pork for the New Year's Eve party at my house.  It was so easy to make.  Stick it in the oven, walk away...the pork is yours.  I definitely prefer this cooking method to a slow cooker....definitely forever.

Ingredients:
5-7 pounds of pork butt (pork loin works too but you'll need the piece with some fat attached)
1 large onion (quartered)
2 tsp each of salt & black pepper
2 tbsp of brown sugar
2 cans of soda pop
2 tbsp of Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp of sweet paprika
 tsp of ground coriander
2 tsp of ground celery or celery salt (if using celery salt, reduce the regular salt to just a tbsp)
 
How to:
1.  Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.
2.  In a large heavy bottom stock pot, place the pork, onion, and the rest of the ingredients.
3.  Position your rack where the pot will be located right in the middle of the oven.  I mean neither the bottom or the top of the pot is too near the oven wire.  Man...lots of explanation!
4.  Flip the pork a couple of times during the 5.5-6 hours of cooking.
5.  When the time is up, take the pot out of the oven.
6.  Remove the pork and put it in a big bowl, then shred it with a big fork.  It should be extremely easy to shred.
7.  Once the pork is completely shredded, put it back in the pot, let it sit in the juice.  This will keep it moist and more flavorful.
8.  Now find a bun or two make yourself sandwiches, sprinkle the pork with some bbq sauce if you'd like.  I prefer eating it naked...I mean naked pork with no bun.

    I’m an atypical almost middle-aged girl who currently lives in a beautiful tiny town called “Spring Lake”, Michigan.  I’m not a full-time mom or a full-time wife (because I work full-time), but I’m a mom, a wife, an animal lover, a cook, a food addict, a former city girl, an aspired Bond girl, and etc…….  I was born in a magical faraway land so far away from Spring Lake.  The exact distant from my home town and Spring Lake is 8741 miles.  The best way to get there is to fly…..oh my….oh my, not too much fun being on a plane that long.  Anyway, let’s see what I have in store for you.

    I love to eat, therefore, I love to cook.  My style of cooking is simple and very simple.  Nothing's fancy...may be once in a while, but it'll still be easy.  I try not to create any more complications in my life.

    Simplicity is the master key in my kitchen.
