Carolina Pulled Pork BBQ

Yup, I made this. Took me all day - but it was goooood-od!

And here we go:

• 3 tablespoons salt
• 2 tablespoons pepper
• 1 tablespoon sweet paprika
• One 5-pound boneless pork shoulder roast
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1/3 cup apple cider vinegar
• 1-1/2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 8 hamburger buns, split

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 300°. Mix together the salt, pepper and paprika; sprinkle all over the pork and rub in.

2. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, turning occasionally, until browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a 24-inch-long sheet of heavy-duty foil and double-wrap the pork.

3. Place the pork, skin side up, in a 9-by-13-inch baking dish; roast until tender, about 4-1/2 hours. Remove from the oven and carefully unwrap the top of the pork, revealing the skin. Increase the heat to 450° and roast for 20 minutes more.

4. Transfer the roast to a large bowl, along with any juices. Using two forks, shred the pork. Add the vinegars, sugar and hot sauce; toss. Serve on the hamburger buns.
