Ingredients
  • 1 cup lager (or any beer of your choice, I used Great Lakes Dortmunder Gold)
  • ½ large onion, chopped
  • ½ cup ketchup
  • ⅓ cup cider vinegar
  • ½ cup packed brown sugar
  • ¼ cup tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons sweet paprika
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 teaspoons salt
  • 2 teaspoons cumin
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 3 pounds pork butt or shoulder, bone-in
  • 30 slider buns (or as many full-sized sandwich rolls as you'd like to serve)
  • Spicy giardiniera, optional for serving
Instructions
  1. Combine the first twelve ingredients in your slow-cooker and stir until combined. Add the pork butt or shoulder and stir gently, spooning sauce over the pork until it's almost completely coated. Turn your slow cooker on low and let it cook for 8 hours (or longer if you'll be away from the home for more than eight hours).
  2. After a minimum of 8 hours, shred the pork using two forks and serve with the extra sauce on the side. Place on individual buns and serve topped with giardiniera, if desired. Save leftovers for up to two days.
