Impossibly Easy Sweet Pulled Pork

6 ingredients
8 steps

Ingredients

  • 4 -5 lbs pork roast
  • 12 ounces salsa (We usually use Pace Picante Medium(but we have used homemade salsa with great results)
  • 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil (Just enough to coat the skillet)
  • kosher salt
  • fresh ground black pepper

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat--we prefer to use Cast-Iron for searing, so if you have one, use it.
  2. 2
    Rub the Salt and Pepper all over the roast.
  3. 3
    Sear the Roast in the skillet for 1-2 min per side.
  4. 4
    Toss the seared Roast in your crock-pot.
  5. 5
    sprinkle the Brown Sugar over the roast and then dump the salsa over the top of that.
  6. 6
    Cook on Low for 10-12 hours. You will know when the roast is done, because it will shred easily with a couple of forks.
  7. 7
    Shred the pork right there in your crockpot and mix it all up with the drippings and other liquids.
  8. 8
    Serve as a filling for tacos/burritos or on top of salads.
