Slow Cooker Beer Pulled Pork
One of the easiest ways to make pork is by using your slow cooker. With this recipe, you start out with a can of cola and some beer. The cola gives the dish a nice sweet flavor while the beer adds some depth to the dish.
For this recipe, you'll need 4-5 pounds of pork shoulder, 1 tbsp minced garlic, 2 tsp paprika, 1 tsp salt, 1 tsp pepper, 1/2 tsp ground ginger, 1/2 cup brown sugar, 2 cups cola, 12 oz beer, or ale (lager), 3 tbsp vinegar.
Combine all ingredients except for the pork in a pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Once boiling reduces heat to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes until reduced by about one-third. Remove from heat and pour the sauce into the slow cooker. Add in pork shoulder and cook on low for 8 hours or until meat falls apart when pulled with two forks. Shred pork with two forks and enjoy!
