Slow Cooker Barbeque Pork recipe

 

The dog-days of late summer are upon us and here in the Mid-West it is simply too warm to stand over a hot stove or burning oven; the perfect time to use the slow cooker! This easy barbeque makes delicious use of fresh produce and some pantry items you already have on hand; the left-overs are even more tasty the next day. This recipe was inspired by a friend from work...stay cool. Enjoy.

Ingredients

1 4-6 lb pork roast ( I prefer the "butt" )
1 medium onion, chopped
3-4 green onions, chopped
1 green pepper, sliced
1 can cola
1 bottle barbeque sauce (28 oz or so)
salt and fresh ground pepper 

Remove the string binding (if there is any) from the pork roast. Lightly rinse meat and pat dry with

paper towels. Season both sides with salt and ground pepper. Place chopped onions and sliced pepper in bottom of a cold 5-quart slow cooker. Pour in cola. Place pork roast on top of chopped vegetables. Cover with barbeque sauce. Cover slow cooker with lid and turn to low. Cook on low for 7-8 hours. Remove meat to platter and cool for 15 minutes allowing juices to rest. Slice meat thin and serve on rolls with the sauce and the cooked vegetables.

Serves 6.
