Directions
For the pork:
Add all of the pork ingredients to the bowl of a 15-quart slow cooker pot. Massage the sauce into the meat in the pork until well combined and coated.
Cover and set on high for 6-8 hours.
When the meat is cooked through until tender (about 6-8 hours), remove the pork butt and transfer to a clean cutting board. Shred using tongs or 2 large forks and return to the slow cooker post. Toss with the remaining sauce and season to taste with salt.
For the slaw:
In a medium bowl, add all the slaw ingredients and mix.
Serve immediately alongside your pulled pork, either on a plate, as a sandwich, or on tortillas as delicious pulled pork tacos. Enjoy!
