Easy ​Pulled Pork BBQ in the Slow Cooker

2/6/2021

 
Picture
This is an easy crowd pleaser for my crew. You just need to decide to make it at least 4 hours before you plan to eat.
 
Ingredients:
Pork Loin, at least 2lbs
One onion
One bottle of your favorite BBQ Sauce. (We use Sweet baby Ray’s  or Williamson Brothers for this recipe)
¼ cup of water
2 cloves of garlic
One package of Hamburger Buns or Rolls
Salt and pepper to taste
 
Step 1: get out the slow cooker and lightly spray this inside with olive oil or Pam
Step 2: Slice a large onion in to chunky slices and place on the bottom of the cooker along with the garlic.
Step 3: Add the pork on top of the onions. Salt and pepper the port to taste.
Step 4: Use at least 3/4 of the bottle of BBQ sauce to cover the pork.  (Leave a little bit to use for dipping when you serve it.)
Step 5: Add the ¼ cup of water, cover and turn on the cooker.
Step 6: Cook for 4 hours.
Step 7: Use two forks to break up the meat and coat it evenly in the BBQ sauce.
 
I serve this with hamburger rolls, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese and cole slaw.  You can make all of that from scratch, but if you’re like me there’s no time for that between getting home from soccer, homework and bedtime for the kids.  So I use the fresh mashed potatoes and mac and cheese from the supermarket, as well as cole slaw from the deli.  Sometimes I’ll make the cole slaw from scratch.
 
Also, my youngest really likes this meal, but not all of the sauce. So I remove his pork from the cooker prior to mixing it all and serving it to the family.

Done cooking, but before mixing.

This is the "picky kid plate", with minimal sauce interaction, and not on the bread.

​This is the "grown up" version of the plate.
