At Home: Crock-Pot Pulled Pork Sandwich

Do you remember our Crock-Pot?  We haven't used it in a while, so Keith thought he would try to make pulled pork and let it simmer and cook all day in the machine while we were at work.  That way, dinner would be easy-peasy and we'd have more time to chill out and relax, rather than slaving away in the kitchen.  Using a few other store bought items, this meal is a cinch and super delicious.  Check out Keith's Crock-Pot Pull Pork Sandwich here on What Micky Eats...At Home.

Keith's Crock-Pot Pulled Pork Sandwich
  • pork loin or pork shoulder
  • seasoned salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika to taste
  • cayenne powder (optional)
  • ½ white onion, sliced
  • 1½ cups barbecue sauce
  • sriracha (optional)
  • 1 package store-made cole slaw
  • hamburger buns, toasted


- Season the pork with salt, pepper, garlic powder, paprika, and cayenne powder. Use as much seasoning to taste, depending on the amount of meat you use.
- Pour half of the barbecue sauce on the bottom of the Crock-Pot.  Place pork meat on top and cover with remaining sauce.
- Add sriracha and onion slices.
- Cover and set on "low heat" for 10 hours.
- Once meat has cooked through, remove from Crock-Pot and pull meat apart with two forks or chop up with a knife.  The meat should be very tender.
- Return chopped meat to Crock-Pot and mix with the juices and sauce.
- Cook on low for another 20 minutes to further stew the meat.
- Meanwhile, toast the hamburger buns.
- Arrange meat on buns and top with cole slaw. Enjoy!
