Before we start, many of you have asked me what is the best slow cooker for your family. There are many variables for every family, but I tell you all about them here:  Best Slow Cooker Choices.

Are you looking for some delicious one of a kind bar-b-que?  Look no further.  You have finally arrived!  This one will need to be cooking all night while you’re sleeping!  We want it to cook extra long and slow.  The longer and slower it cooks, the better it tastes!

Ingredients:

4 pound pork roast (shoulder or butt)
2 large onions
1 cup ginger ale
1 bottle BBQ Sauce (your favorite flavor)
BBQ Sauce for serving (optional)

Hamburger Buns

Directions: 

Slice onion and place in bottom of the crock pot. (Onion has already been sliced and frozen if you’re following my freezer to slow cooker plan. ) Put in the roast and cover with the other onion . Pour ginger ale over the top.  Cover and cook on low for about 12 hours (for older crocks) or about 8 hours (for newer crocks).

Once cooked, remove the meat, straining the onions, but discarding the liquid.  Shred the meat with 2 forks.  Discard any fat, bones or skin.  Most of the fat should have melted away.

After it’s nicely shredded, return the meat and onions to the slow cooker and cover it with the BBQ sauce, stirring it in to cover the meat well.  Cook another 4 to 6 hours on low.

Serve on hamburger buns.  Leftovers freeze well.

This recipe is part of the Freezer to Slow Cooker, week 4 meal plan.

  • Amorette DavisUser of the Free Freezer to Slow Cooker One Week Menu

    Thank you so much! As a special needs mommy these recipes have helped us so much.   I often am very busy with being a nurse for our child that I don't have time for making sure we get meals.  This allows me to do all my prep on the weekends, while my husband is home to help, and to cook during the week.  So grateful!

  • Linda SearsOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Menus

    Sarah’s Freezer to Slow Cooker ebooks have been a fantastic addition to my meal plans.  They make meal planning easy and my family happy. I love the way each recipe is laid out, with a shopping list and ingredient prep list, along with cooking instructions. Sarah’s done all the hard work for me!  The recipes have used have all been delicious and easily adaptable to my family’s taste and the number of people I’m serving.

  • FranOwner of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebooks
     I purchased all of your freezer to slow cooker ebooks a month or so ago and I'm in love with this way of cooking.  I now have taken all 10 weeks of recipes and written them of my menu planner and then I repeated the 10 weeks and will continue to do so throughout the year.  My family of 5 adults and 1 child enjoy the meals that you have planned and I have cooked and I'm excited that the next time when that meal comes due up in the rotation I won't have to purchase anything but just pull it from the freezer.  Thank you so much

    This makes my life so much easier. I'm a busy work at home/stay at home mom, wife, business woman and I feel like dinner is always the thing I just never get time to do. We have done like 15 of the crockpot recipes from Sarah and they are all very yummy. They get a thumbs up from my husband and kids every time. And there is always enough for my husband to take the left overs at least 2x per recipe. I have a family of 5, 2 adults, 21, 13, 16. So it makes plenty. Thank you Sarah.

  • Dawn S.Buyer of Freezer to Slow Cooker Ebook Series
    I am a 59-year-old wife and mother of two grown children.  I love your idea of fixing a lot of meals ahead of time and then pulling one out, put it in the crockpot, and you have dinner when you get home.  I hate feeling rushed when I cook so Monday - Friday I use those crockpot meals and make enough that we have lunch the next day.  I take Sunday afternoon, fix up what I need for the week (I don't have a lot of freezer space so I do a week's worth at a time) and I'm done with it!  Saturdays I like to try new recipes from some of my cookbooks which I am finding I can freeze as well!  So you have shown me a whole new way to organize my time and still put a healthy meal on the table.  Thanks so much and I look forward to future blogs.
