Slow-cooker Apple Cider Pork
  1. Pork butt roast is often labeled Boston butt in the supermarket.

  2. Pat pork dry with paper towels and sprinkle all over with salt, sugar, and pepper.

  3. Whisk apple cider, ½ cup apple butter, and flour together in slow cooker. Add onion, garlic, and thyme sprigs. Place pork fat side down in slow cooker. Cover and cook until fork slips easily into and out of pork, 6 to 7 hours on high or 8 to 9 hours on low.

  4. Transfer pork to carving board, fat side up; tent with aluminum foil; and let rest for 20 minutes.

  6. Slice pork crosswise ½ inch thick and arrange on serving platter. Pour 1 cup sauce over pork. Sprinkle with chives. Serve, passing remaining sauce separately.
