Southern BBQ

Makes 6 to 8 sandwiches

1 c. cider vinegar

2 T. sugar

1 T. salt

3 to 4-lb. pork loin roast

1 T. Worcestershire sauce

1/2 c. catsup

Optional: hot pepper sauce to taste

6 to 8 sandwich buns, split

Mix together vinegar, sugar and salt. Pour over roast in a slow cooker. Cover and cook on low setting for 10 to 12 hours, until pork pulls from bones. Remove and cool; pull apart and shred. Mix 6 to 8 tablespoons of cooking liquid with Worcestershire sauce and catsup. Pour over pork and add hot sauce to taste, if desired; mix well. Spoon shredded pork and sauce onto buns.

Alongside sticky, ooey-gooey comfort foods, set out a basket of warm, moistened washcloths. Dampen washcloths with water and a little lemon juice, roll up and microwave on high for 10 to 15 seconds. Guests will thank you!
