use the one with the green cap.
1 bottle or can of light beer or lager
Directions

Please the pork shoulder
in the ceramic bowl of the Crockpot.
2.
Season the pork with the
adobo seasoning and pour in the beer.
3.
Place the bowl into
the base of the slow cooker and cook on High until the pork is tender and falls
apart easily, 8 to 10 hours.
4.
Carefully remove the
pork to a cutting board; shred the meat into strands using a pair of forks. Remove
and discard any excess fat and bone.
Divide the pork for 2 meals.
Meal Ideas
Basic BBQ Pulled Pork
This recipe is very easy. Simmer the pork in a pot with a half
cup of your favorite bbq sauce and half a cup of beer. I am partial to Wegmans
brand Brown Sugar sauce. Cook for about 20 minutes or until your desired consistency. Or to keep it extra simple: heat the pork and add to roll with some bbq sauce on top. This is a great summer-like dinner.
Shredded pork tacos
Another easy recipe. Grab your favorite taco seasoning packet
and follow the directions on the back. The preparation for this will be ever
faster because your starting with cooked meat.
