Shredded Lemon Pork Crock Pot Style

*Pork Boston Butt Roast
*1 can Mountain Dew or 7-Up
*1/2 can which is 6 ounces Frozen Lemonade concentrate
*2-3 tablespoons of Dried Onion Flakes
*1/2 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
*1/4 teaspoon Pepper or to taste
*1 teaspoon Sea Salt or to taste

Add the above ingredients to your crock pot.

My roasts are usually use frozen so when I put roast in my crock pot I set crock pot on high and it takes about 6 (but if you are worried about safety thaw before cooking in the refrigerator) and then I shred the Pork removing any extra fat and let cook 1 more hour. Adjust for your crock pot in cooking time.

If my roast was fresh I would remove any extra fat before cooking. You could also simmer the roast for about an hour in a pot of water to get rid of more of the fat, drain off the water/fat and then cook on low for 6-8 hours in the crock pot, a long with the above ingredients, again adjust time to cook with your crock pot directions.

Then serve over cooked rice.

Making these buntings/banners are really fun to do. They are simple and easy and won’t require much time because banner only has 4 seasonal flags and you will need to make only 4 seasonal items each month and the bunting/banner is ready made to use each month once you’ve made the burlap banner with clothes pins you just switch out the seasonal items.

This Crow & Watermelon is one of the banners I use for the month of August. The links are below for making the Burlap bunting/banner.

Cut your legs 2 1/2 x 7 – 8 inches, fold in half one piece of fabric in half with wrong sides together sew the long sides together 1/4 inch seam, (I usually just follow the edge of the sewing foot) then use a safety pin and turn your tube of fabric to the right side. No need to iron these legs. Punch holes in your finished feet and body, two holes in the body and one hole in each foot. Then place leg through hole and tie a knot in the backside of feet and crow body.
