I found a recipe for an amazing dry rub months ago online. It is in the regular rotation at our house.
What you need for the dry rub:
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp red pepper flakes
1/2 tsp paprika
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp mustard powder
2 tsp salt
3 tsp brown sugar
Here are my variations to this: use only half the red pepper flakes, I don't like things too spicy. Double the brown sugar.
The meat for this is boneless pork ribs. I get this from a butcher counter in Helper, for two of us I buy about 5 cut 3/4 inch thick.
You will also need:
Apple juice
White vinegar
1 bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce
Hamburger buns
Rub the dry rub all over meat; front, back and sides.
Fill a crock pot about an inch to an inch and a half deep with apple juice
Add about a quarter to a half cup of white vinegar.
Add the pork
Pour BBQ sauce over the top. Not the whole bottle, just enough that the tops of the ribs have sauce on them. You'll need the majority of the sauce later.
Cook on high, all day.
If you notice the liquid starting to evaporate, just add more apple juice.
Once the meat is the correct temperature take it out of the juice and onto a cutting board.
Use two forks to pull it apart.
Once it is on your hamburger bun, add your BBQ sauce, as much as you want!
Sides that taste great with this include: Pasta salad, jello parfait from the deli section of a grocery store or baby red potato's. (Quarter the potato's, drizzle melted butter or use spray butter over the top, sprinkle with garlic salt and parsley. Bake in a 375 degree oven until tender)
