Del has been craving BBQ pulled pork for some time now. Although our local BBQ houses serve pulled pork, it’s always so greasy that it makes us sick. Therefore, we went on a hunt to make our version. We decided to make our slow cooker Coca-Cola Pulled Pork recipe.

It took me scouring our local farmers’ stores, and I had to go to a place almost an hour away from me to get shoulder butt because our local farmers’ stores did not have any in stock. I was impressed with Lee Poultry & Hog Farm (LPH) in Cottageville once I got there too.

What impressed me about Lee Poultry and Hog Farm (LPH) was the wonderful greeting we received. When I walked into their well-organized little shop, I could tell they put a lot of heart into what they provide their customers. It was clean and tidy. I had the opportunity to hand-pick the pieces of food I wanted. They also interacted with me quickly on social media.

The hard-to-locate shoulder butt! 🙂

Ingredients Notes

Ingredients

4.3 lb Shoulder Butt
6.5 12.5 Coca-Cola bottles or ONE two-liter bottle
3 tsp garlic powder
3 tsp McCormick Smokehouse Maple
3 tsp salt
3 tsp pepper
3 tsp onion powder
3 tsp Tony Chachere's, Seasoning, Cajun
3 tsp brown sugar

Notes

First, DO NOT take my measurements to heart!! I am an old-school cook and do NOT measure my seasonings. But the idea behind this recipe is inspired by Princess Pinky Girl’s Crockpot Coca-Cola Pulled Pork recipe. We tweaked ours a bit to add seasonings we liked. But she included measurements in her recipe, and she shares recipes more than we do. 😉

First, we mixed up our dry ingredients.
Then I cut slits throughout the shoulder butt and removed excess fat from it.
From there, I covered the shoulder butt with the seasoning mix.
I added a bit of Coca-Cola to the bottom of the slow cooker.
Then I put shoulder butt in the slow cooker.
Then I added the Coca-Cola from the side of the shoulder butt to keep the seasoning on it. I did NOT cover it; I only added Coca-Cola till it almost covered it completely.
Then I cooked it on low mode for 9 hours.
Then I took it out, shredded it, and removed all but a bit of the juice.
Then I added one bottle of Sweet Baby Ray’s Honey BBQ sauce and cooked it for another hour.
