Ingredients

3 lb. pork butt roast

Barbecue Sauce:

7 oz tomato paste (¾ cup)
¾ cup balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon smoked salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon stevia glycerite (or 2 tablespoons honey)

Instructions

Place the pork in your slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the barbecue sauce ingredients. Pour over the pork and use your hands to make sure the pork is well-coated.
Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours.
Carefully remove the lid (hot steam will escape). Increase the heat to HIGH. Use two forks to shred the meat and mix it well with the sauce (remove the butcher twine if needed). Cover and cook until slightly thickened, 15-30 more minutes, then serve.
