Ingredients
- 5 pound pork loin
- 1 (12 oz) can Coca-Cola
- 2 Tablespoons liquid smoke
- 2 Tablespoons smoked paprika
- 2 teaspoons cumin
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Trim any extra fat off the pork loin, then cut it against the grain into 3 smaller pieces.
- In a small bowl, stir together the smoked paprika, cumin, garlic powder, salt and pepper. Place pork roast on a cutting board and rub the spice mixture evenly over all of the pork.
- Add the Coca-Cola and liquid smoke to a greased slow cooker giving it a stir. Then, add the spice-coated pork to the slow cooker. Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours until the meat is tender and shreds easily.
- Once the pork has cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove it from the slow cooker and place it on a plate. Use 2 forks to shred the meat. Then, return the shredded meat to the slow cooker and give everything a stir so the cooking juices flavor the meat. Allow the shredded meat to sit on low in the juices for 30 minutes before serving.

Notes
- Hint: Serve this Coke Pulled Pork on buns with BBQ Sauce, Cole Slaw, sliced watermelon, potato chips and Jalapeno Mac and Cheese for a classic summer meal.
- For extra flavor and texture, spread the cooked Coca-Cola Pork on a sheet pan, then drizzle with a ladle of the cooking liquid and broil for about 5 minutes, until the edges are crisp and browned.
