Low Carb Pulled Pork (with or without Meema's BBQ Sauce)

Note from Cheri: In this case "Meema" is our friend April S. Fields, author of the fabulous book 101 Low-Carb & Sugar-free Dessert Recipes. This recipe is part of a collection April shared, along with her personal experiences with low carb diet mind games. Click here for that story. Click here for lots more low carb recipes!

This is a wonderful summer dinner because it cooks all day while you are busy doing other things and doesn't heat up the kitchen.

The pork is pictured with April's Low Carb Cucumber Salad, click here for that recipe.

1 boneless pork shoulder - 3-4 pounds 1/2 bottle (3.5 ounce bottle) liquid smoke Meema's BBQ sauce (optional)

In the morning, place boneless pork shoulder in a crock-pot. Pour 1/2 of a 3.5 oz bottle of Liquid Smoke all over the top and cover. No other liquid is necessary. Cook for six -seven hours. (If you don't have a crock-pot - get one. There is no cheaper, easier, better way to have dinner waiting for you when you get home from a long day unless your mother lives with you.) When ready to serve, remove to a platter and pull into chunks with two forks. Serve with or without Meema's BBQ sauce. Pulled pork prepared this way has no carbs. Meema's BBQ sauce has 3.1 carbs per cup.
