Crockpot Pulled Pork Recipes

crockpot pulled pork recipes
My family is all about barbecue sauce and this is one of their favorites! There are a million crockpot pulled pork recipes that you can try, but sometimes the simplest recipe is the most delicious! With only a few ingredients (unless you choose to make homemade barbecue sauce), this is is the ultimate “I don't feel like cooking, but I also don't feel like ordering a pizza” meal to make. It will also work well for parties, potlucks and makes the perfect game day recipe!

Now, we do need to talk about the cole slaw. I am of the opinion that it should be illegal to serve pulled pork without cole slaw, so my view may be a little skewed. But for years, I always ate my cole slaw as a side dish to my pulled pork sandwich. You really DO need to try putting the cole slaw ON your sandwich. You will never go back to eating it on the side again (although it does make it an even messier sandwich to eat)!

Using a 3 lb pork roast should give you enough to make 10 – 12 sandwiches.  If that seems like too much food, don't forget that the cooked pulled pork can easily be frozen.  Just put the leftovers in a freezer bag, label it and you will have another dinner ready to go!

To make it, you will need:

  • 1 3 lb pork shoulder roast, butt or tenderloin
  • 1 12 oz can of cola or root beer
  • 1 18 oz bottle barbecue sauce (or more if you like it a little “saucier”)
  • 12 hamburger buns

See the complete recipe and instructions below!
