Recipe View Braise the Pork: Place the seasoned roast in a large Dutch oven. Add the chopped onion. Fill the Dutch oven halfway with water. Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the meat is extremely tender and easily pulls apart with a fork (approximately 3 to 4 hours, depending on the size and density of the roast).

Recipe View Shred and Sauce: Carefully remove the hot roast from the Dutch oven and place it in a large serving bowl. Using two forks, shred the pork into bite-sized pieces. (15 minutes)

Recipe View Combine and Serve: Pour the barbecue sauce over the shredded pork. Stir well to ensure all the pork is evenly coated in the sauce. Serve immediately on your favorite hamburger buns, accompanied by your favorite coleslaw or other side dishes. (5 minutes)

For an even deeper flavor, consider searing the roast in a hot skillet on all sides before braising. This will create a beautiful crust and enhance the Maillard reaction.
Feel free to experiment with different types of barbecue sauce to find your perfect flavor profile. A smoky, sweet, or tangy sauce all work well.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, simmer the sauced pork in the Dutch oven for an additional 15-20 minutes after shredding to allow the sauce to reduce and cling to the meat.
Leftover pulled pork makes excellent sandwiches, nachos, tacos, or can be added to salads.
