This is the best pulled pork I have ever made! It is tender and so flavorful. We top our sandwiches with a sweet and spicy BBQ sauce and coleslaw. I'm pretty sure this is my two growing boys favorite meal now.

    A substitution that works. Liquid smoke for the Mesquite powder and get a can of chipoltie in adobo and use 1 deseeded for the chipoltie powder. Chipolties are smoke dried Jalipinos not quite as hot as cayenne and with a nice smokey accent.

    I made this for dinner last night for my husband Oh My Gosh! Divine! I left it in the crockpot for about 14 hours on low (since mine does not have a medium setting) and the pork just melted in our mouths. The flavor was both sweet and smoky. Absolutely Delicious!
