Perfect Pulled Pork

This was in one of my magazines as an advertisement for Pork - The Other White Meat.  In other words, it's a recipe from the National Pork Board and I have to admit that they know pork.  This is delicious.  Throw it in the slow cooker, get some rolls, add some barbecue sauce and you are in delicious business!

Ingredients:
5 lbs. boneless pork butt shoulder
1 1/2 tsp. smoked paprika
2 tsp. black pepper
1 tsp. cayenne pepper
1 tsp. dried thyme
1 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. water
soft sandwich buns

Directions:
Combine all seasonings in a small bowl and rub evenly over roast.  Place meat in a 6-quart slow cooker.  Add water.  Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or on HIGH for 4-5 hours or until pork is very tender.

Place pork on large cutting board or platter and let rest for 10-15 minutes.  Pull, slice or chop to serve.  Serve in buns with barbecue sauce.

JJ, I have to do a dinner and we want pulled pork, soooo this recipe looks like it will fit the bill perfectly. Only question, could you estimate how many it will serve, on buns, of course?
