For a deeper flavor, sear the pork shoulder on all sides in a hot skillet before adding it to the slow cooker. If you don't have a slow cooker, you can braise the pork in a Dutch oven in a 325°F (160°C) oven for 3-4 hours, or until tender. The pulled pork can be made ahead of time and reheated. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Serve with your favorite sides, such as rice, coleslaw, or roasted vegetables.

May 26, 2025I found it a bit too sweet for my taste, so I reduced the honey and brown sugar slightly. It was perfect!
