Slow Cooker Pork Butt

1 Pat the pork dry. If it comes wrapped with a cotton twine netting, I like to leave it on mine until after it’s cooked. Rub the pork thoroughly with the seasoning you’ve chosen. Be generous!

2 Place into the slow cooker and put the stick of butter on top and set to high for 4-5 hours, or low for 7-8 hours. You’re looking for an internal temp of 200 degrees. You can add a little liquid to the bottom of the pot, but it’s not necessary. This cut of meat should have enough fat to keep it moist, especially with the butter.

3 Once it’s done, remove to a plate or bowl and let it rest for about 15 minutes and then remove the netting and shred. Add back to the juices and stir. You can serve as-is, or refrigerate to use in recipes later in the week.
