   I have been using my slow cooker a lot lately, and am looking for some new ideas and recipes to try.

   BBQ pulled pork
   2lbs Boston Butt
   brown sugar
   spices to your liking
   1 bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce
   Cook 8 hours on low
   
   I love making this and I make a bottle of homemade bbq sauce to poor over it. It pulls apart so easy and taste great on buns or as a main dish. My kids always put coleslaw on a bun with this bbq on top.
   If you are against eating pork beef can be used also and actually tastes really good with a beer based bbq sauce.
