Preparation:

Step 1
• Combine brown sugar, chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper in a small bowl. Rub the mixture all over the pork shoulder. Wrap the pork in plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hours, or preferably overnight.
Step 2
• Preheat oven to 150°C.
Step 3
• Place the pork in a large pot on a layer of onion halves. Roast until tender and falling apart, about 7 hours. Remove the pork from the pot and place it on a cutting board. Chop some onion.
Step 4
• Place the pan on the stove over medium-high heat and add 0.5–1 cup of hot water. Scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan and cook for 5 minutes, until the liquid has evaporated slightly. Pour in barbecue sauce and, stirring, bring to a boil.
Step 5
• Shred the pork with two forks, add chopped onion, and then drizzle with barbecue sauce of your choice! Serve the pork on buns.
