PORK ROAST DUTCH OVEN PIONEER WOMAN RECIPES

Steps:

• Cover pot roast with 3 slices of bacon and place in a Dutch oven coated with olive oil. Place the garlic cloves in the pot as well. Sear all 4 sides of the pot roast. After searing place 16 ounces of beef broth and 16 ounces of beer and water to top it off. Add the salt, pepper, white pepper, and cumin, to taste. Cover the pot and let it slow cook for about 1 hour. After an hour add bay leaves and whole black peppercorn. Let it slow cook for another hour. Lastly, add red potatoes, onion, crushed red pepper and cook for another hour.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Peel the onion and cut it into wedges. Lay them in the bottom of a large dutch oven. Generously salt and pepper the pork roast, then set it on top of the onions in the pan. Pour the can of chipotle peppers over the pork (include the sauce.) Pour in both cans of Dr Pepper. Add brown sugar to the juice and stir in.  Place lid tightly on pot, then set pot in the oven. Cook for at least six hours, turning roast two or three times during the cooking process. Check meat after six hours; it should be absolutely falling apart (use two forks to test.) If it's not falling apart, return to the oven for another hour.  Remove meat from pot and place on a cutting board or other work surface. Use two forks to shred meat, discarding large pieces of fat. Strain as much of the fat off the top of the cooking liquid as you can and discard it. Return the shredded meat to the cooking liquid, and keep warm until ready to serve. (You can also refrigerate the meat and liquid separately, then remove hardened fat once it's cold. Then heat up the liquid on the stovetop and return the meat to the liquid to warm up.
  Serve on warm flour tortillas or hamburger buns. Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, grated cheese, avocado slices, salsa, and whatever else you'd like.
