Ingredients: 2-3 lb boneless Boston Butt 1 large onion, chopped 2 cloves garlic, chopped 1 tablespoon smoked paprika 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 teaspoon dried thyme 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 teaspoon pepper 2 cups liquid (I used white zinfandel wine) 1 - 18 oz bottle barbecue sauce Method: 1. Mix paprika, oregano, thyme, salt and pepper in a little bowl. Then use spices as a rub for the meat. Add pork to crockpot and pour in liquid. Add garlic and onions. Turn crockpot on low for 8-10 hours. 2. The pork should be completely falling apart after cooking. Pour off liquid, reserving about 1/4 cup. Shred the pork with a fork and add barbecue sauce. Mix well. Turn crockpot to high for about 30 minutes, or until heated through.
