Spicy Pulled Pork

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon adobo seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 (4 pound) pork loin roast, cut into pieces
• 1 tablespoon butter
• 2 onions, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 3/4 cup barbeque sauce
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 3 tablespoons hot pepper sauce

Directions

Mix flour, chili powder, paprika, cumin, adobo seasoning, and cayenne pepper in a large bowl. Add pork and toss until coated.

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; fry pork in batches until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer browned pork to a slow cooker.

Cook and stir onion and garlic in the same skillet until vegetables are fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir tomatoes, barbeque sauce, brown sugar, and hot sauce into onion mixture and simmer for 5 minutes. Pour sauce over pork.

Cook on low for 5 to 6 hours. Transfer pork to a plate and shred with 2 forks. Return pork to slow cooker and stir. Continue to cook, uncovered, until thickened, 10 to 15 minutes.
