This is the recipe I used the other day for the Boston butt roast. The children enjoyed it and it didn’t come out so spicy as to keep the youngest from complimenting it and asking for more-so don’t fear the cayenne. It also makes a nice sandwich the next day if you find you have leftovers.
Boston Butt Roast
1 Boston butt pork roast
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons salt
2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup water
Combine the onion, garlic, salt, cayenne and black pepper. (I did this in my handy chopper so it was sort of paste like) Spread on roast. Place roast in crockpot…add water to the bottom of the crockpot (don’t pour it over the roast) Pour the molasses over the roast. Cook on high for an hour-then low for 6-8 or leave it on high for about 5 total hours.
