Pork

Southwest Pulled Pork

I made these sandwiches on a whim one Sunday when friends called to say they wanted to drop by in the afternoon. I was able to feed them and my neighbors a casual supper. If you have time, you can coat the roast with the rub and store it, covered, in the fridge several hours before cooking for even more flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless pork shoulder butt roast (4 pounds)

  • 1 large sweet onion, coarsely chopped
  • 2 cans (4 ounces each) chopped green chiles
