Mildly Spicy Pop Pulled Pork

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F.

2. 2

   Start by placing the onion quarters in the bottom of an oven-safe pot. Sprinkle the pork with salt and pepper, and then place on top of the onions. Spoon in the brown sugar. Pour the chipotle peppers over the top, and then pour the soda pop over everything.

3. 3

   Cover the pot, put in the oven and cook for about 6 hours, turning the roast 2 or 3 times during cooking. When it's done, the pork will be darker and falling apart. (I used tongs to turn 2-2 lb. roasts and when they were done the pressure of the tongs was making the meat shred.).

4. 4

   Remove the meat from the pot and shred completely. At this point you may remove the cooked onions and chipotle peppers if you don't wish to have them with the shredded pork. I hear that keeping the peppers in will add heat to the final dish, though I did not do that. Then return the meat to the pot and keep in the juice until you need it.
