Dutch Oven Pulled Pork

Dutch Oven Pulled Pork

A wonderful oven-roasted BBQ pulled pork in a Dutch oven that can be made with any pork roast. Low-and-slow roasting up above the juices is the key. Serve by itself or on buns. I like mine with coleslaw and a root beer-BBQ sauce on multigrain buns. Baked beans are a nice side dish, too.

Ingredients

  • 1 (3 pound) boneless pork loin roast, or more to taste
  • 1 tablespoon barbeque spice rub, or to taste
  • 1 (18 ounce) bottle barbecue sauce, or to taste

Directions

Step 1
Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (104 degrees C). Place a small rack inside a Dutch oven.

Step 2
Rub pork roast with barbecue spice rub and place on the rack in the Dutch oven.

Step 3
Cover and cook in the preheated oven until roast is fork-tender, about 8 hours.

Step 4
Shred the roast with 2 forks and return meat to the Dutch oven with some of the roasting juices and a generous amount of barbeque sauce.

Step 5
Place on the stovetop and let simmer over medium heat for at least 30 minutes.

Tips

Using a rack inside the Dutch oven helps keep the roast out of the juices while cooking, and actually prevents it from drying out. If you don't have a rack, you can use an overturned disposable pie pan with holes pierced in it.
