Home-made BBQ pulled pork

We used the slow cooker next to slow cook pernil - aka pork shoulder, aka one of the best parts of the pig to cook. The butcher shop we went to would only sell the entire shoulder, so we got the butcher to slice it into thirds and we only cooked 1/3 this time.  We poured an entire 2L bottle of Dr. Pepper soda in the slow cooker with the meat.  After 7ish hours, I then shredded the pork and coated it all in Dinosaur BBQ's awesome Sensuous Slathering BBQ sauce, which the local supermarket happened to have in stock.  I was primarily responsible for the meat while Dan made a home-made slaw.  We got potato roll slider buns so we could eat in my favorite way - mini-style haha.  It was truly a delicious meal and actually didn't end up eating that much b/c the flavors in the slider were so rich.  Super happy I decided to get the slow cooker.

All the pork-y goodness after 7ish hours of slow cooking
