Equipment

  • Slow Cooker
  • Mixing Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 2.5 pounds boneless pork shoulder roast
  • 1 cup peach preserves
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 medium onion, sliced

Instructions
 

  • Pat the pork shoulder dry and season all sides evenly with the salt, black pepper, and paprika.
  • In a mixing bowl, stir together the peach preserves, bourbon, soy sauce, and minced garlic until smooth.
  • Scatter the sliced onion across the bottom of the slow cooker. Place the seasoned pork on top of the onion.
  • Pour the peach bourbon mixture over the pork, making sure it covers the top and sides as much as possible.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, until the pork is very tender and pulls apart easily with a fork.
  • Remove the pork to a cutting board and shred or slice it. Spoon some of the cooking liquid and onions over the meat before serving.

Notes

Mashed fresh peaches can be stirred into the preserves before cooking if you want a brighter fruit taste. The sauce will thicken slightly as it sits, so spoon it over the pork right before serving. Leftovers store well in the fridge for three days and reheat gently in a skillet with a splash of water to loosen the glaze.
