BBQ Pulled Pork (Slow Cooker)
Ingredients:
5 lbs (2) pork tenderloin
1 ½ cups root beer
18-24oz BBQ sauce
- Place pork tenderloin in the slow cooker, add the root beer.
- Cover and cook on low for 5-7 hours (cooking time varies depending on your slow cooker).
- Drain the pork.
- Use two forks to “pull” and separate the pork. Add the BBQ sauce, stir. Set slow cooker to “warm” and serve when you are ready!
Suggestions:
- I would highly recommend using your favorite BBQ sauce, we prefer Dinosaur Bar-B-Que sauce, but I realize this is a regional item not available everywhere.
- Serve on toasted/warmed hamburger or hotdog rolls with all the fixings.
- You can definitely half this recipe and use only 1 (about 2lbs) pork tenderloin, just be sure there is 1-2 inches of root beer in the bottom of the slow cooker.
