Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Mix all of the dry rub ingredients together in a small bowl, then sprinkle the pork roast completely with the dry rub.  After the pork roast has been completely coated with the dry rub then cover it with plastic and put it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
3. Combine the garlic powder and the liquid ingredients in a medium bowl and pour into a large Dutch oven (A large pot or kettle made of cast iron with a tight fitting lid).  Place Pork in the oven and tightly cover with aluminum foil then the lid for the oven.  Roast the pork for at least 4 hours or until fork tender and shreds easily.  Make sure to brush the roast with the cooking liquid every hour.
4. When the pork is done remove it from the oven and let it stand until it is cool enough to handle.  Shred the pork with a fork or tongs into bite size pieces.
5. Lastly serve the pork on hamburger buns with any type of Bbq sauce and cole slaw.
