How do you make pulled pork?
We like to make pulled pork in two different ways. This pulled pork slow cooker recipe is a great way to make no-fuss crock pot pulled pork.
We also like to smoke a whole pork loin because the slow cooking method adds a delicious smokey flavor to the shredded pork. The pork tenderloin is first marinated in apple cider vinegar and then coated in our homemade rub before smoking for 8-10 hours.
These sliders can be served with french fries, potato chips or your favorite side salad like potato salad or caesar salad. Make these easy pulled pork sandwiches for game day or a weeknight dinner.
