This recipe is so easy, a child could do it. Well, in fact my daughter gave me this one…LOL. I am setting up a category – KISS – Keep It Simple Stupid..these will always be very simple recipes with minimal ingredients and prep time. These will be great recipes for the summer ahead!
My daughter used this on some wonderful onion buns, but more recently we used it to make soft tacos. If you do the latter, accompany it with some shredded lettuce, grated cheddar or Monterrey Jack cheese, chopped onions, some different salsas, sour cream, cilantro, etc. Let everyone fix their own…
Slow Cooker Pulled Pork
2 to 4 pork tenderloins with the silver and fat removed as much as possible (I used 6 loins for 45 people).
1 can of Coca-Cola (use enough to cover all of the pork)
1 cup of BBQ sauce…whatever your favorite is…
cloves of garlic (to taste)
Cut slits in the tenderloins and insert the garlic cloves (as many as you want)
Put loins in slow cooker and pour over them the Coke and BBQ sauce.
Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
In the last hour use two forks to pull the pork apart and return it to the cooker to soak up some juices.
Serve immediately with buns or tacos.
Can be made ahead and rewarmed in a low oven for about 30 minutes.
Gee I wonder how this would work with boneless chicken breasts??? Maybe use a bit of Chinese Hoisin Sauce?
Your great Pulled Pork and our conversation have convinced me to buy a slow-cooker. Is there a store in the Merida area that carries these at a reasonable price?
Bev.
Best bet is Costco…or maybe the kitchen store at 64 and 63 in Merida…SW corner…
This sounds like a recipe even I could cook! For a food that you cook for 6 to 8 hours, it seems kind of ironic to say “serve immediately”! 🙂
