Ingredients

  • 1 5-pound pork butt (also known as Boston butt or pork shoulder)
  • 1 lemon
  • 1 apple
  • 2 tsp salt

Instructions

  • Place the pork into a 6 or 8 quart slow cooker. Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the top of the pork. Slice and core the apple and place on top of the pork. Sprinkle the top of the pork with the salt.
  • Cook on LOW for 8 - 10 hours. Shred the meat, being sure to discard the apple skins, fat and bone. Portion the meat into five separate containers (about 3/4 - 1 pound each) for meals.
  • Shredded pork can be stored in air-tight containers for up to one week in the refrigerator or up to one month in the freezer.
