Instructions

Preheat the oven to 215 F. Pat the pork dry, trim excess fat, then thoroughly coat it with the mixed rub ingredients.
Place the pork, fat side up, into a large Dutch oven. Combine 1/3 cup water and liquid smoke in a ramekin, then place it next to the pork in the Dutch oven. Cover tightly.
Roast for 12 hours or until fork-tender (approximately 200 F internal temperature). Turn off the oven and let the pork rest for 1 hour before removing.
Transfer the pork to a cutting board, shred it using forks, and adjust seasoning to taste.
Serve warm on soft rolls with barbecue sauce.
