North Carolina Pulled Pork

I got this from an North Carolina native and it is the best. It is pretty much foolproof. This is made in the slow cooker.

Ingredients

• 2 pounds pork shoulder roast
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 0.5 cup ketchup
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 0.3333333333333333 cup red wine vinegar

Steps

1. Preheat slow cooker on Low for 15 minutes.
2. Season pork shoulder with salt and pepper; place pork in preheated slow cooker. Mix ketchup, brown sugar, and vinegar in a bowl; pour over pork.
3. Cook on Low for 8 hours. Transfer pork to a large platter and slice into 3 to 4 pieces. Shred meat with 2 forks and return to slow cooker. Continue to cook for 1 hour.
