Pulled Pork Sandwiches

381 shares
Jump to Recipe -

Does your crockpot sit in the cupboard and gather dust or are you a huge fan and use it all the time? I’m somewhere in-between. I have a handful of recipes that I cook only in my crockpot. Tortilla soup, traditional chili, sweet potato chili, and pulled pork. I need to acquire a few more slow cooker recipes, so if you have a favorite, feel free to share it with me.

Pulled Pork Sandwiches

What’s not to love about placing all your ingredients in, setting a timer, and coming back 8 hours later to dinner being ready? I think the reason I don’t use mine more often, is most recipes that I cook in it are winter meals, so during the summer months, it sits, and we BBQ outside. But, not for this recipe. Pulled Pork Sandwiches are good any time of year, for lunch or for dinner.

We enjoyed ours served on toasted Hawaiian rolls, with a side of grilled fresh pineapple, and a simple coleslaw.

Two forks easily shred (or pull) the pork.

It was such a beautiful evening, that we dined outside. And this was the perfect warm weather meal to enjoy!!

Pulled Pork-5

For my simple slaw, I used red and green cabbage, carrots, and red bell pepper. Slice everything very , very thin. I cheated and used a bottled slaw dressing (Marie’s is my favorite). Top with a little cracked pepper. I think that cole slaw is best made earlier in the day and refrigerated.

I sliced a fresh pineapple into thick slices and put them directly onto the BBQ grill for about 3-4 minutes per side.

Pulled Pork Sandwiches

Author Joy in Every Season

Ingredients

  • 6 # bone in pork shoulder
  • 1 large yellow onion sliced
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 2 cups BBQ sauce I use Bullseye
  • 2 cups root beer or a dark beer works also
  • Hawaiian rolls or your favorite soft sandwich roll

Instructions

  • Mix salt, pepper, garlic & onion powders together in small bowl. Rub all side generously with seasoning mix.
  • Slice yellow onion.
  • In glass measuring cup or bowl, whisk together BBQ sauce and root beer.
  • Place meat in large crockpot. Top with sliced onions. Pour BBQ sauce mix over top.
  • Cover and set to 8 hours.
  • When done, the meat should easily fall off the bone.
  • Remove from sauce and shred meat using two forks.
  • Scoop onions from sauce and add to meat.
  • Add in approx one cup of cooking liquid to meat and onions.
  • Serve on grilled buns with additional BBQ sauce.

FYI, this was a large piece of meat. Simply adjust for a smaller cut.

    Renee! Glad to have connected on FBC and now here again. 🙂
    I love sandwiches! They are my best friend whenever I head to Uni for tutoring work. Convenient, filling, and amazing.
    Your sandwiches look AMAZING! And the photos are fantastic too.
    Love these — and this is coming from a vegan! So it says a LOT about how good they look <3

    DARN I GOT THE CAPCHA MATH WRONG. What's five plus 3? hahaha kidding 🙂 It's 4 😛

I walked into Trader Joe’s the other day (with my granddaughter), and she quickly spotted a sign about their milkshake contest! “We have to do this Nana!” How could I say no to her enthusiasm as she quickly chose her shake ingredients. 
You’ll have to head over to her page @gigibeanblog to see what flavor she decided on. 
🍑🥤🍦🍑🍦🥤🍑
I decided on a Peach Ginger Shake! The rules state that you must use only five ingredients that you purchased at TJ’s and post your recipe. 
🍑🍦🥤🍑🥤🍦🍑
Peach and Ginger Shake
* 1 pint Southern Peach Crisp ice cream
* 1 fresh peach (peeled, sliced, & frozen)
* 1/4 cup milk
* Whipped cream
* Ginger Snap cookies (crushed)
Place ice cream, frozen peach slices, & milk into blender and blend until smooth. Pour into your favorite milkshake glass, top with whipped cream, and crushed ginger snaps. Garnish with fresh peach slices and additional cookies! Enjoy!!

Nothing says summertime like backyard fun! Swimming, slip & slides, sprinklers, and a big glass of cold lemonade!! I hope you’re all enjoying your summer! What’s the weather like where you live? We’ve been traveling for the last week, and I have to admit, that although I love the heat and summer sunshine, I’m not used to humidity (we’ve been in FL, the gulf coast area, and TN). I’m usually the first to complain when our coastal CA fog rolls in, but I’m actually looking forward to cooler temps for a few days.

This simple Orzo Salad is the perfect side dish for anything you plan to grill! It’s also a delicious salad to bring to family gatherings or potlucks! And the best part is I use my favorite bottled balsamic dressing, so it’s both easy to make and delicious!

Back when our girls were younger, we used to host large backyard bbqs on the 4th of July. We’d easily host 100+ friends and family and everyone would enjoy swimming, basketball, trampoline, fireworks, and of course a lot of good food!! I always made my Baked Beans! Always! They may not be the prettiest dish, but they are delicious! You can find the recipe link in my profile.

I’m visiting with my daughter and her family this week, and as usual they give me their dinner requests. I love that they (especially my son-in-law) love my cooking!! One of the requests this week was Bruschetta Chicken! It’s easy to make, tastes delicious, and is perfect for grilling on a warm summer evening! Check out the link in my follow for the recipe.

Do you have your Easter Menu set and your shopping done? It doesn’t matter if we host Easter dinner or brunch, you’ll likely find a large platter of grilled asparagus as one of the side dishes! This year it will be served alongside quiche, ham, fruit parfaits, deviled eggs, and cinnamon roll monkey bread for Easter brunch! Click on the link in my profile to see how I make my grilled asparagus.

Easter! Wow, I can’t believe it’s this Sunday! Do you have any Easter family traditions? Ours usually starts off with church, followed by an egg hunt and enjoying either brunch or an early dinner with family and friends. I’ll be hosting a small family brunch this year. I’m still finalizing my menu, but plan on including a delicious ham served with this Brown Sugar Mustard Glaze! You can find the recipe on my blog (follow the link in my profile).

Just three more days till Valentine’s Days! I love how this table turned out, with the black and red! I added more elements to it than I normally do, but I was in the mood for a fun bright table! I talked about adding layers to a tablescape in my blog post, if you want to head on over and read it. The link is in my profile.

Muddy Buddies (aka Puppy Chow) isn’t a new recipe. I was curious enough to look it up and read that it started in the Midwest in the early 60’s. 
I’ve snacked on it plenty of times, but had never made it until this week. A few colored M&Ms easily transforms it into a treat for any holiday or occasion!
