In our house on Sundays, we usually plan something pretty easy for dinner. After all, it is the day of rest ;). So, most of the time this means we break out the crockpot. The crockpot has to be one of the best kitchen appliances ever invented!! You really can cook just about anything in it. One of our favorite things to cook is pulled pork BBQ. We have tried this recipe many different ways and we still turn to the crockpot!
First, I'll buy 1lb Pork Sirloin Roast and 1lb Pork Ribeye Roast. Now I let Greg do the rest cause he's just better at it than I am. Besides I'm usually busy getting other things together! He places both roasts in the pot and coats them with Kitchen Bouquet's Browning and Seasoning Sauce. Then he douses the pork with Hickory Liquid Smoke. Liquid Smoke is such an awesome ingredient, it gives you that flavor that you smoked that meat for hours and hours! And that's it, just those two ingredients!! Put on the lid and cook on low for 5-6 hours. After its finished, remove the roasts from the crockpot and shred in a separate bowl. Greg usually uses two large grilling forks to do this, then he dumps the juices out of the crockpot and puts the shredded pork back in. Then just pour in your favorite BBQ sauce, we always use Sweet Baby Ray's Original and Honey BBQ. The two mixed are the perfect sauce but you can use what ever you prefer! Mix it up and leave the crockpot on warm. Now, you can buy any buns you like but my favorite are Hawaiian Rolls!! I just throw them in the oven to toast them a bit. I always like to have coleslaw with my Pulled Pork, both on my sandwich and on the side! You will see the pic of the slaw dressing I buy. My favorite is the Southern Recipe, but sometimes I like to make my own as well! I also made fried pickles as an accompaniment! I mixed about a cup of flour, 1 1/2 Tbsp Black Pepper, 1 Tbsp Paprika, 2 tsp Garlic Salt and about 1/2 tsp of cayenne (more or less depending on how spicy you like it). Pour in about enough beer to make a thick batter. Dip your pickles in the batter and deep fry in 375 degree oil until browned and float to the top! You can use any kind of pickle you want, we usually just use hamburger chip pickles. Oh, and don't forget Ranch to dip them in ;).
Well, I hope you try these recipes out and like them as much as we do! Feel free to ask questions and leave any feedback! Also, send your friends my way ;)
