Lower Rainland...

This beautiful part of British Columbia that we live in is often called the Lower 'Rainland' instead of the Lower Mainland.  This is what I saw when I looked out my windows yesterday.  The weatherman called for 2-3 inches of snow, but we ended up with a mixture of snow, rain and freezing rain instead.  Really, I can't complain.  We've had great winter weather so far with very little rain.  On days like this it's easy to stay inside and focus on comfortable things.  Yesterday I threw supper in the crockpot and enjoyed using the rest of the day to finish taking down Christmas decorations and do the regular household chores.  Here's the recipe if you're interested.  It's super easy, and tastes great!

Shredded Pork:

Place your boneless pork shoulder roast in the crockpot (3-4 lbs)

Mix together:
1 1/4 cups ketchup
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup chopped celery 1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup lemon juice
3 tbsp vinegar
2 tbsp worcesterschire sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp ground mustard
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper

Pour mixture over pork roast in slow cooker. Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 4-6 hours or until meat is tender and pulls apart easily.  Once it's done cooking, use two forks to shred meat.  Serve over rice or buns. 

Easy Peasy.
