Steps

• Prepare the Barbecue Sauce
• Combine all the barbecue sauce ingredients in a saucepan.
• Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
• Remove from heat and set aside.
• Prepare the Pulled Pork
• Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
• In a small bowl, combine the salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and brown sugar to make a dry rub.
• Rub the dry rub all over the pork shoulder, ensuring it is evenly coated.
• Heat olive oil in a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
• Sear the pork shoulder on all sides until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
• Pour the barbecue sauce over the pork shoulder.
• Cover the pot with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven.
• Bake for 3 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily shreds with a fork.
• Remove the pot from the oven and let the pork rest for 10 minutes.
• Using two forks, shred the pork into bite-sized pieces.
• Assemble the Pulled Pork Burger
• Toast the burger buns until lightly golden.
• Place a generous amount of pulled pork on the bottom half of each bun.
• Drizzle additional barbecue sauce over the pulled pork.
• Top with your favorite burger toppings, such as coleslaw, pickles, or sliced onions.
• Place the top half of the bun on the burger.
• Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips

• For extra flavor, marinate the pork shoulder in the barbecue sauce overnight before cooking.
• If you prefer a spicier barbecue sauce, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the saucepan.

Information

• Pulled pork can also be made in a slow cooker. Simply follow the same steps for preparing the pork and barbecue sauce, then transfer everything to a slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours.
