This is Josh Hamilton's favorite sandwich to eat with his family, especially when he comes home after a game. Katie must like making it, too, because it is a classic slow-cooker recipe that needs very little attention. The payoff is meltingly tender pork in a sweet sauce. To round out the meal Southern-style, serve the sandwiches with coleslaw, baked beans, or fries.
Yield: Makes 8 servings
1 3 1/2-pound boneless pork shoulder or butt roast, rind and excess fat trimmed
Salt and freshly ground black pepper 2 18-22-ounce bottles of your favorite barbecue sauce 8 sesame seed buns, toasted
1 Lightly season the pork with salt and pepper. Place in a slow cooker insert, add the barbecue sauce, and cover. Cook on low until the pork is fork-tender, 8-9 hours.
2 Skim off any fat from the sauce surface. Transfer the pork to a carving board. Let stand for 5 minutes. Using two forks, shred the pork, discarding any excess fat. Return to the slow cooker.
3 Heap the meat and sauce onto the buns and serve hot.
