SLOW COOKER SOUTHERN BARBECUE PORK ON A BUN
This is a really nice pork sandwich recipe that I found in the Chicago Sun-Times and fixed tonight for dinner. Plan ahead a bit as it has to marinate overnight but it's great the next day, just dump it in the slow cooker and let it rip. It makes a lot of sauce so I saved the leftover sauce and plan to use it on BBQ chicken this coming week. These sandwiches were really good served on DotM's Hamburger Buns, recipe #89932! prep time includes marinading time.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder (also known as pork butt) is the best cut for pulled pork. It is a fatty, well-marbled cut that will become tender and juicy when cooked slowly.
- Use a good quality barbecue sauce: The barbecue sauce is what gives pulled pork its flavor, so it is important to use a sauce that you like. There are many different types of barbecue sauce available, so experiment until you find one that you enjoy.
- Cook the pork slowly and low: Pulled pork is best cooked slowly and low. This allows the collagen in the pork to break down, which makes the meat tender and juicy. Cook the pork on low for at least 8 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 195 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Shred the pork: Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it with two forks. You can also use a meat shredder to make this process easier.
- Serve the pulled pork on buns or rolls: Pulled pork is traditionally served on buns or rolls. You can also serve it over rice, mashed potatoes, or coleslaw.
Conclusion:
Pulled pork is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is perfect for parties, potlucks, and family gatherings. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make pulled pork at home. So next time you are looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give pulled pork a try. You won't be disappointed!
