Can you Roast a Boston Butt in a crockpot?

I mean if I stuffed it with garlic added seasoning then just stuck it in a crockpot on low for say 10 hours? Or would it just fall apart?

Roast? No
Cook down into pull-apart goodness? Definitely

I've done it many times. Season well and add a bit of water the fat will add enough moisture that it won't burn
ETA: I do it for pulled pork as well and add sesoned sliced onion on top

I've had pulled pork at a b-day party done in a crock pot and it was phenomenal

It will work just fine in the crock pot. No grilled or smoked flavor but it will be a good pork roast. I agree with browning it a bit first. Could do that on the pit, also, and then toss it in the crock pot.

You can cook a butt in a crock pot and have some nice pulled pork. It's pretty damn greasy though. Smoked for a couple hours and finished in the crock pot would be better. Will render some fat and add some flavor. Or do a loin roast...

My preferred way to cook pork while at home.
A nice trick if you want carnitas is to shred the pork after it's finished. Lay it out on a baking sheet and splash a bunch of the leftover juice/fat over it all. Then pop it until a broiler until it just begins to brown.

Yeah, I like to brine it, brown it really well, then throw in the crockpot with a splash of water and covered in red/green bell peppers, onions, and cherries.

I prefer a pork shoulder roast in a slow cooker. Boston Butt's are best thrown on the grill.

Put it in there with a jar of Jack Miller

I've cooked Boston Butts in the crockpot plenty of time. I leave the fat cap on, then i put the Butt under the broiler for 5-10 once it is done...this will make some very tasty pork skins!
I pan sear the roast first then put it in the cooker over some trinity!

I like to season it with powdered taco seasoning and then cook in Shiner Bock. Makes awesome pulled pork tacos.

Ive done probably over 100 boston butts in a crock pot
Season and stuff with garlic
Sear in skillet
Place butt in crock pot with root beer and mustard
Let cook in crock pot for 8-10 hours
Pull apart and remove bone.
Easy peazy

My SIL will take a beef round roast, season it up really well, brown it for a few minutes on each side, then add some chopped garlic, put it in the crock pot with about 1/4 cup of water, and cook it for about 8 hours. It's really good.
I would imagine you could do the same with a pork butt.

Roast? NO! ~~ Braise? YES! Personally, I don't particularly care for it. However, people do it(braise) all the time with butts, ribs, and briskets....whether in a crock pot, or wrapped in foil. butcher paper and the like.

You can. I wouldn’t.

I sear it in olive oil heavily seasoned to get a good crust. Throw in the crock pot with a can of Hatch Chilies and a can of pineapple juice. Cook on low for 8-10 hours. Tastes phenomenal.
