- save a few of the peppers for garnish when serving but add the rest in the crockpot)

- 6 tbsp. of butter cut into chunks
Instructions
- Season the Boston Butt roast with salt pepper and garlic powder.
- Add the Butt roast into the crock pot.

- Then, top the roast with 6 tbsp. of butter cut into little chunks.
- Set the crock pot on low and cook for at least 6 hours.
- Serve over mashed potatoes and use the crock pot drippings to serve over the potatoes ad the roast! SO GOOD! MAKE IT!
Notes
- Cookware: I used a 7 qt Crock pot to make this recipe: My Crock pot link
- You’ll be tempted to add in water…don’t do it! Totally unnecessary and you won’t get the same result. You’ll get plenty of juices from the pork and the butter.
- Best served over mashed potatoes, with the juice from the crockpot poured over the potatoes and the pork. Add a little chopped fresh parsley for garnish.
- If you are looking for that seared topping of the roast like I achieved; DO NOT mix in the seasoning or butter. Just sprinkle both packets over the Butt Roast and then lay the chunks of butter on top! The Pepperoncini’s and juice can go around it in the crockpot!
