Directions
  1. Preheat the oven or warming drawer to 250°F.
  2. To make the mustard BBQ sauce, add the cider vinegar, red onion, garlic, chipotle in adobo, spicy brown mustard, whole grain mustard, yellow mustard, brown sugar, and beer to a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook for 5 minutes.
  3. Remove from the heat and carefully transfer to a blender. Blend until smooth, then return to a Dutch oven.
  4. Add the sliced onions, bay leaves, and seasoned pork shoulder to the sauce. Cover and cook in the oven for 4–4 1/2 hours, until the pork is tender.
  5. Remove from the oven. Discard the bay leaves and shred the pork into the onion-BBQ sauce using two forks.
  6. To make the slaw, whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar, cider vinegar, and celery seed in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the shredded cabbages, carrots, and shallot, then toss to coat. Adjust seasoning as needed. (The slaw develops more flavor as it sits.)
  7. Serve the pulled pork on potato rolls topped with the slaw.
