Slow Cooker Pulled Pork

Slow cooker pulled pork is easy comfort food at its best. The meat becomes incredibly tender, full of flavor, and effortless to shred after a few hours of slow cooking. What looks like a labor-intensive dish is actually a simple, hands-off recipe.

Serve this pulled pork on a crusty bun with coleslaw, or use it in tacos, wraps, or lettuce cups. It’s also perfect to make ahead and freeze for later.
