season the outside of a Boston Butt with Tony's and sear all sides in a large black Iron Skillet. Drop into slow cooker with a can of chicken broth, a cubed onion, a few cloves of whole garlic and let it roll all day. Can't mess it up.

My wife did one last week with a recipe she got from a co-worker. Don't remember specifics, but it called for a good amount of liquid smoke and a McCormick pulled pork something or other package. Don't do that recipe. It was edible only because I didn't want a divorce.

Boston Butt
Dry Rub
White or Yellow Onion
Cut up onion and place at the bottom of crock pot. Dry rub outside of BB and place on top of onions. High for 7 hours then pull apart pork and cook another hour. Add a little BBQ sauce if you want at this time but don't soak the pork in it.
Adding water or stock is not necessary because the BB lets out enough juice while cooking. Also think searing the side is not necessary either.

Tip: Don't add suce until you've finished the cooking and broken it down. The sauce tends to change(for the worse,in my opinion) if cooked with the meat.

thanks for the input..
I have some wild hog that i want to use.. But i will also use boston Butt so it doesnt have a stong wild flavor.
I plan on using BBQ sauce as a condiment..
Any Recommendations ? i have always been a fan of sweet baby rays

In a sauce pan, heat the SBR's with some of the juice from the BB that you get out of the crock pot.

I trim a lot of the cap when slow cooking since drippings have nowhere to go

My gf makes one with a can of Dr Pepper and a can of Chopotles in adobo sauce. Surprisingly damn good

Either that or do some serious skimming. A butt in a crock pot with out having spent time on a smoker will get greasy like a mofo.

My wife cooked one this week using a Carnitas recipe. Cubed, seasoned, then braised it with an orange. Finished off in the broiler to fry all the grease and crisp it up. Insanely good. I saw she bought a can of condensed milk, not sure when that ingredient went in.
Top with a salsa or slaw or both.

Why not use the oven instead of slow cooker?
Made a 7 lb one yesterday and it had a great bark, with a ton of a flavor.

I cut the fat of a Boston Butt and pour in a can of root beer, on high for 7 hours.
Drained the pot, tore it apart and added Sweet Baby Rays, put on low for 30 min

If you like a mustard/vinegar based sauce try this:
1 1/2 cups prepared yellow mustard
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup cider vinegar
3/4 cup beer
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon freshly ground white pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons liquid smoke flavoring
1 teaspoon Louisiana-style hot sauce, or to taste
Directions
In a heavy non-reactive saucepan, stir together the mustard, brown sugar, vinegar, and beer. Season with chili powder and black, white, and cayenne peppers. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, and cook for about 20 minutes. DO NOT BOIL, or you will scorch the sugar and peppers.
Mix in the Worcestershire sauce, butter, and liquid smoke. Simmer for another 15 to 20 minutes. Taste, and season with hot sauce to your liking. Pour into an airtight jar, and refrigerate for overnight to allow flavors to blend. The vinegar taste may be a little strong until the sauce completely cools.

I used Southern Pecan when I made it.
Only suggestion I would have looking back on that recipe is to maybe 86 a little bit of the spice. Came out pretty damn hot.

I use generic cola, cinammon sticks and a head of garlic. Full of flavor.

I rub mine up with Tony's, smoke for 2 hours at 190 then put in a pyrex dish, cover with foil and 5 hours in the oven at 275. Never any left overs.
