Prep Time
Before we dive into the recipe, it's important to mention that while this dish may be called "slow" cooker pulled pork, it's not exactly a quick meal. The meat will need to cook in the slow cooker for at least 8 hours, so be sure to plan accordingly. However, the prep time for this recipe is minimal, making it perfect for busy weekdays or lazy weekends.
Ingredients
The star of this recipe is, of course, the pork. You'll need a 3-4 pound pork shoulder or pork butt for this recipe. Other essential ingredients include barbecue sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and spices such as garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
Instructions
Start by mixing together the barbecue sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and spices in a small bowl. This will be your flavor-packed sauce that will infuse the pork with delicious Southern flavors.
Next, place the pork in the slow cooker and pour the sauce mixture over it, making sure to coat it evenly. Cover the slow cooker and set it to cook on low for 8 hours.
After 8 hours, remove the pork from the slow cooker and use two forks to shred the meat. It should easily fall apart and be incredibly tender.
Place the shredded pork back into the slow cooker, mix it with the remaining sauce, and let it cook for an additional 30 minutes to an hour. This will allow the pork to soak up even more of the delicious flavors.
Serving Suggestions
Once the pork is done, it's time to enjoy it! There are endless ways to serve this Southern pulled pork, but here are a few suggestions:
On a soft, toasted bun with coleslaw and pickles for a classic pulled pork sandwich.
