Crock Pot Pulled Pork Sandwiches

Pulled pork sandwiches are an all time favorite in my family.

This recipe is my favorite way to prepare them.
All year long this delicious sandwich is on our dinner time menu.

Luscious shredded pork drenched in sweet bbq sauce topped with coleslaw on a soft roll, what’s not to love?  I mean seriously! 

I top it with a homemade bbq sauce and homemade coleslaw.  Hubby likes sliced pickles on his. Put yours together however you like and enjoy!

BTW: Yes, I do indeed know, that this is in no way actually bbq.  It’s braised pulled pork topped with a bbq sauce!

Author: Kathleen

Ingredients

  • 5-7 Pounds Pork Shoulder Roast

Dry Rub:

  • 3 Tablespoons Dried Paprika
  • 1 Tablespoon Dried Garlic Powder
  • 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar Packed
  • 1 Tablespoon Dry Mustard
  • 3 Tablespoon Salt

Braising Liquid:

  • 2 Cups Apple Cider
  • 1/4 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1/2 Tablespoon Liquid Smoke
  • 1/2 Tablespoon Dried Garlic Powder

Sandwich Ingredients:

  • Barbecue Sauce
  • Prepared Coleslaw
  • Sliced Pickles
  • Kaiser Rolls or Onion Rolls

Instructions

  • Mix all dry rub ingredients together.  Rub the spice blend all over the pork roast and refrigerate overnight.
  •  Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Combine all braising liquid ingredients in a large dutch oven then add the pork roast.  Cover tightly with aluminum foil then tight-fitting lid and roast for about 4 hours.  Flip the roast over once during cooking so that it cooks evenly.
  • Remove from oven and let stand until cool enough to handle.  Shred the pork with a fork and remove any visible fat (they won't be much).
  • Serve on buns with bbq sauce and coleslaw.

  9. I'm so pleased to see this recipe – most recipes for pulled pork seem to use a crockpot or slow cooker and I don't have one! I could definitely have one of those right now!

  20. I don't eat meat but my Hubs and kids do and my son has been begging for one of these sandwiches. He loves them and would eat them every day if we would let him!

    Thank you for sharing my SITS day with me!

  24. I don't think that I've made pork bbq from scratch. Beef, yes. But not pork. I'm a big fan of pulled pork too. I love that you've borrowed and tweaked to get your own perfect bbq. I've found that everyone likes it just a little different. Some more spicy, some more saucy, some sweeter, and some like the vinegar. This sounds delicious!

  25. That looks amazingly delish, I see you have been busy! I was just looking at some eggplants the other day wondering what I could do with them as they are so lovely! Your recipe was so timely!

  26. This looks soooo good! We do pulled pork A LOT over here and just recently have added the cole slaw. SO yummy. Your combo of the 2 recipes sounds great and I am going to try pickles next time, that sounds good 🙂
    Thanks for stopping by my site, I can't believe I haven't come across yours sooner. really great!

  30. What a delicious sandwich. My husband's favorite food is pulled pork and he would love this! We are also both fans of Paula Deen. Anything I've ever made from her recipes has always been good! Just have to watch that I don't cook her food everyday……I'd blow up!

  33. Kathleen, we love pulled pork and the only way to ever eat it in my opinion is with coleslaw and on the sweeter side! 🙂 Looks delish! Great photo!

  37. One of my all time favorite things to eat….the best thing about moving to the South…i never knew what pulled pork was when i lived in Jersey….I need to try your version….we like the sweet stuff too…

  38. This looks like one incredible sandwich! I like how you borrowed a little from Tyler and Paula and made it your own. This post came at a great time because I have a pork shoulder in my freezer and I think it's calling my name 😀
