- Shred the pork: Once the pork is cooked, shred it with two forks or a meat shredder. You can also use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment to shred the pork.
- Make the barbecue sauce: While the pork is cooking, make the barbecue sauce. There are many different recipes for barbecue sauce, so find one that you like. Some common ingredients in barbecue sauce include ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and spices.
