Recipe type: Entree
Serves: 20
Ingredients
  • 3½ cups cider vinegar (20 fl oz)
  • 1½ tbsp sugar
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1 tbsp pepper
  • 1 cup hot diced green chiles (Hatch Hot, Hot Select New Mexico)
  • 1 cup diced Dynamite chiles (XX-Hot)
  • 1 tsp hot red pepper flakes
  • 1 (8-10 lb) bone-in pork shoulder roast (preferably butt end)
  • 1 tsp liquid smoke
  • Note: If you cannot get Dynamite chiles, just use 2 cups of the hot diced green chiles and add a tablespoon of the red pepper flakes. You can also add minced jalapeno or serrano chiles.
Instructions
  1. Heat the vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper in a saucepan until sugar is dissolved. Add chiles and pepper flakes.
  2. Place the pork roast in a 4 qt or larger crockpot. Pour vinegar mixture over the pork roast. Cover and cook on low for at least 6 hours or overnight. The pork should be tender and pull apart easily with a
  3. fork.
  4. Remove the roast from the liquid, place on a plate, cover and put in the refrigerator.
  5. If you wish to reduce the fat, pour the liquid into a pot or container and chill it for about 2 hours or until the fat begins to solidify on top. Skim the fat off the liquid with a slotted spoon and return the liquid to the crockpot. Add a teaspoon liquid smoke.
  6. Remove the roast from the refrigerator and use 2 forks to shred the meat. Put the shredded pork back in the liquid in the crockpot and cook on high for another 1 to 2 hours.
  7. Adjust salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. Use a slotted spoon to serve or remove pork from the liquid. You may want to brown it in the oven for 20 minutes.
  8. Serve on hamburger buns, small rolls, or in a quesadilla. You may want to have a small crockpot on the side with the broth to pour over the pork. Great with coleslaw.
