I am a sucker for a good pork BBQ. The problem is that I never have time to sit next to the smoker and babysit the pork. So, here is a great recipe that takes all the work out of a pork picnic yet still brings those flavors you love to the table.

Pork BBQ Ingredients

5-6 pound Pork Picnic (aka Boston Butt)
4-5 Tbs your favorite BBQ dry rub (we like Head Country)

Instructions

The night before, rub your butt (the pork one that is) liberally with the dry rub.
Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and place in the fridge. Now is that easy or is that easy?
The next morning, place the pork, fatty side down, in a crock pot.
Cook on low 10-12 hours until fork tender.
Once cooked, take two forks and pull apart. Shredding the pork.

The Drunken BBQ Sauce Ingredients

1 bottle of your favorite beer
1 small onion diced
1-2 Serrano peppers, diced (add more for a spicier sauce)
1Tbs olive oil
1 cup your favorite BBQ sauce (again we like Head Country)

Instructions

In a skillet heat oil over medium heat.
Add peppers and onion, cook till onions are soft and translucent.
Add bottle of beer.
Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer. Simmer till beer has evaporated by half.
Add 1 cup of BBQ sauce, and bring back to a boil.
Once it starts to boil again remove from heat and blend till smooth.

Simple yet flavorful pork picnic! Put some of this pork on fresh soft yeast rolls with a little drunken BBQ sauce for an melt in your mouth sandwich. Cole slaw, baked beans, and sweet tea - now you have a meal your family will love.
