PULLED PORK SLIDERS
Adapted from southernplate.com/Donna and Tim Sessions
Pork roast (about 5 pounds) 1 tablespoon salt 1 teaspoon pepper 1½ cups cider vinegar 2 tablespoons brown sugar 1 tablespoon hot sauce 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
Place roast, fat side up, in slow-cooker; and sprinkle salt and pepper on all sides. Pour cider vinegar over roast. Cover with lid and cook twelve hours. Remove pork roast and shred with forks. Drain juices from slow-cooker, reserving two cups of liquid. Return roast to slow-cooker. Add brown sugar, hot sauce, and crushed pepper flakes to the reserved liquid. Stir well. (This is not a spicy sauce. For a bit of a kick, add onion and garlic powder or tobacco chipotle or any of your favorite spices, and pour over shredded pork.) Place lid back on. Place on low or warm setting until ready to serve. This can be made ahead of time, refrigerated, and reheated in the microwave.
