Crock Pot Pulled Pork Recipe
Report
Crock Pot Pulled Pork is made from a seasoned pork shoulder cooked slowly with water and hickory smoke flavor until tender enough to shred. After shredding, the pork is mixed with barbecue sauce and reheated, resulting in juicy, flavorful pulled pork perfect for serving on buns with extra sauce.
Description
This recipe utilizes a four-pound pork shoulder rubbed with salt and black pepper, placed in the crock pot with water and liquid smoke to impart a smoky flavor. The pork cooks on low heat for 8 to 10 hours until very tender. Once out of the cooker, it is shredded using forks for a traditional pulled pork texture.
After shredding, the pork is returned to the crock pot with barbecue sauce, warming through for about 20-30 minutes to absorb sauce flavors. The result is moist, smoky, and tender pulled pork ideal for sandwiches or served alongside traditional sides.
