Place the pork in the crockpot. Pour coke over the pork. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours. Remove from crockpot and shred. Serve with your favorite BBQ sauce.
BBQ Sauce
Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil; cover pan; reduce heat and simmer about 20 to 30 minutes until sauce is very thick. Stir occasionally.
Notes:
I used a boneless pork shoulder for this recipe. You may also see this cut of meat referred to as a pork butt or Boston butt.
Can I use a bone-in pork shoulder? Yes! If using a bone-in shoulder, you will just need to cook the pork on the higher end of the cooking time.
Can I cook pulled pork on HIGH in the crockpot? Yes! You can cook the pork shoulder on HIGH for about 4 to 6 hours.
To make the pork in the Instant Pot Pressure Cooker, cook the pork on HIGH pressure for 1 hour. Turn off and let steam naturally release for 20 minutes. Quick release any remaining pressure. Remove pork from Instant Pot and shred.
If you don't want to make the homemade BBQ sauce, you can use store-bought instead.
My favorite store-bought BBQ sauces are G. Hughes, Sweet Baby Rays, Stubbs, and Williamson Brothers.
Can pulled pork be reheated? Yes! You can make the pork ahead of and store it in the refrigerator until ready to serve. Reheat the pork on the stovetop or in the microwave.
Can pulled pork be frozen? Yes! Make the pork as directed and shred. Toss the pork with sauce, if desired. Let the pork cool completely and place in a freezer bag and freeze. When ready to serve, thaw and reheat in the microwave or on the stovetop.
