Pulled Pork Sandwiches

The best Pulled Pork is made in an outdoor smoker, but this is a close second which is easily made indoors. This is a great recipe to create a picnic like meal during the cold season. I also make this recipe with beef, chicken or turkey.

Crock Pot Pulled Pork

1 3 lb. pork loin roast, trimmed (or you can use a 3 lb. beef roast or 3 lb. boneless skinless chicken breast or a turkey beast with the skin removed)
1 c. water
1 (18 oz.) bottle barbecue sauce
1/4 c. firmly packed brown sugar
1 tsp. hot sauce
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
couple dashes liquid smoke

Put meat in crock pot with water. Cook covered on high for 6-7 hours or until meat is tender and easily shreds with a fork. Add remaining ingredients, mix well and if using turkey remove bones. Reduce to low and cover then cook one more hour. Serve on buns with your choice of sides such as baked beans, cole slaw, macaroni salad or tossed green salad.

Mmm sounds good. I have a couple of cheap beef roasts in the freezer and I've been wondering what I could do with them.

I think you will really enjoy this recipe! Another good thing to do with beef roasts is make Birria (MExican Style Pot Roast), I have a recipe listed under "Crock Pot".
