Instructions
Preheat oven to 300F.
In a separate bowl, mix the chili powder, black pepper, garlic powder and salt.
Cut the roast into 3 inch sized chunks. Rub the spice blend all over all the pieces of pork.
Mix the pork roast with the chopped onion and peppers in a large dutch oven or other suitable roasting pan. Pour the pop all over the pork and cover with a lid.
Bake in the oven for about 4 hours, or until the pork is so tender that it will easily shred with a fork.
Take out of the oven and use a turkey baster to remove the excess liquid. Use tongs to remove any bones and excess fat.
Use two forks and shred the pork meat into thin strands. Stir in the BBQ sauce so that the meat is thoroughly coated in the sauce.
Cover with the lid and place back in the oven for another 30 minutes.
Serve on a bun with extra sauce, cole slaw and pickles, if desired.
