Pulled Pork with Homemade Sauce

If you love pulled pork like my family does, but want a healthier version, this is the one for you. This recipe is from NW Kidney and can be found HERE . This is a homemade BBQ sauce since regular BBQ sauce can be so full of sugar and unhealthy ingredients. There may be a lot of ingredients but this is a slow cooker recipe so, once the sauce is made, it's just a sit-and-go recipe from there. You can turn this into a pulled pork sandwich or just eat the pulled pork plain, like we did. We served ours with potatoes and broccoli.  Ingredients: 1 cup ketchup (preferrably low sodium although I couldn't find this anywhere) I was able to find a no-sugar ketchup 1 cup no-salt tomato sauce 2/3 cup brown sugar 2/3 cup red wine vinegar 1/4 cup molasses 2 tsp liquid smoke 1/4 tsp garlic powder 1/4 tsp onion powder 1/4 tsp chili powder 1/2 tsp paprika 3 cinnamon sticks 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper 1/2 tsp pepper 4 pounds pork shoulder roast Directions: Mix all ingredients (except the pork shoulder
