Instructions
Adjust oven racks to accommodate your dutch oven if necessary. Preheat oven to 300° Fahrenheit.
Make the pulled pork seasoning by combining all of the seasoning ingredients in a small bowl and mixing.
Remove the pork shoulder from any packaging. Slather the pork all over with the yellow mustard.
Next, season the pork all over with the seasoning mixture. You should get a good amount of seasoning all over every part of the pork shoulder surface. It may seem like a lot, but the seasoning will mix up with all the shredded pork in the end.
Pour the apple juice in the dutch oven around the pork. Place the lid on the dutch oven.
Transfer to the oven and cook for 5 hours (1.25 hours per pound of pork you're cooking). The pork should be very tender and easily shred with a fork.
Once the pork is done, carefully remove it from the oven and shred it with 2 forks. Mix the pork with the juices left over in the dutch oven. Serve and enjoy.
