Ingredients

for the pineapple BBQ pork:
  • 1.5 lbs pork loin can sub another cut but I prefer the leaner cut
  • 2 cups Paleo BBQ Sauce divided
  • 1 1/2 cups pineapple juice can also sub water
for the lettuce wraps:
  • 2 stalks romaine lettuce leaves removed. Can also use bib lettuce
  • 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
  • 1 cup matchstick carrots
  • 1 large avocado pitted and cut into chunks
  • 1 medium pineapple cored and cut into chunks
  • 1/2 cup diced green onions

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. 1. In a 4-6 quart slow cooker, add pork loin and pineapple juice. Cover pork with about 1 cup of the Paleo BBQ Sauce, reserving the rest for later. Cook on low for 6-8 hours, or high for 4 hours. flipping pork over half way through if possible.2. Once the pork has fully cooked, carefully drain most of the liquid from the slow cooker–you can leave about 1/2 cup or so.3. Shred the pork with two forks, then add in the remaining cup of Paleo BBQ Sauce. Stir together.4. Prepare the lettuce wraps: lay out the lettuce leaves and fill with about 1/4 cup of pork. Add on carrots, cabbage, avocado, and pineapple. Garnish with green onions and maybe some paleo ranch dressing, if you wish. Enjoy!
