Ingredients

Spice Rub:

  • 3 Tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 Tbsp dried parsley
  • ¼ tsp chipolte powder
  • 2 tsp salt

Also:

  • 4-5 lb pork butt (sold as “pork shoulder butt end” or similar)
  • 2 medium onions, sliced

Directions

  1. Mix the chili powder, coriander, cumin, onion powder, parsley, chipolte, and salt. Rub over the entire roast (use all of the spice mix for a 4-5 pound roast).
  2. Line the bottom of a slow cooker with a layer of sliced onions. Rest the spice-rubbed roast in the onions and cover with any remaining onions. NO LIQUID REQUIRED.
  3. Cook on HIGH for 5-6 hours, then low for another 3-4 hours. Pork should be falling apart when done. Shred the meat with all the contents of the crockpot.
