Pulled Pork Sandwiches

Yesterday I cooked a Boston butt in the crockpot. We had it with mashed potatoes and gravy and green beans. It was delicious. Tonight I am taking the leftover pork, shredding it and mixing in a YUMMY homemade sauce and serving it on buns. If you have a favorite barbecue sauce, you can use it in a pinch, but this recipe is better, I promise. You can double the recipe and put some in a container in the fridge for another time, too.

1 c ketchup, 1 c vinegar ( I like balsamic but cider works well, too), 1/2 c brown sugar, 1/4 c molasses (I have used honey too), 1 1/2 t liquid smoke, 1/4 t black pepper, 1/4 t garlic powder, 1/4 t onion powder, and 1/2 t cayenne (optional), mix well, whisk till smooth, bring to a boil and simmer about 45 minutes, until thick. It is fantastic! Have a wonderful Wednesday!
