Ingredients:
- 3-4 pound pork shoulder
- 2 TBSP vegetable oil
- 2 cups water
- Sweet BBQ rub (recipe below)
- Burger buns
- Dill pickle chips
Sweet BBQ rub:
- 1 cup turbinado sugar
- 1/2 cup kosher salt
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 3 tablespoons chili powder
- 3 tablespoons smoked paprika
- 2 tablespoons granulated garlic
- 1 tablespoon onion powder
- 1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
2. Mix dry rub ingredients together. Store in a mason jar to be used again.
3. Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add oil. Generously season all sides of the pork with the dry rub. Place the pork in the oil and seat on all sides (2-3 minutes/side). When all sides are browned remove to a plate.
4. Add water to Dutch oven. Using a wooden spoon deglaze the plan and scrape brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Return roast to the pan, cover and place in oven for 3-4 hours.
5. Remove from oven and shred meat in its juices. Serve on bun and top with pickles and your favorite sauce. (Spicy mustard, BBQ sauce, etc)
