Pulled pork is such a classic slow cooker recipe. I’ve shared our go-to recipe, Crystal’s Pulled Pork, and two fun variations, Balsamic Honey Pulled Pork and Asian Style Pulled Pork. I’d never made a simple pulled pork with a classic, homemade sauce, though – something I needed to remedy during football season.

This was pretty much perfect for a lazy football Sunday. Chopping the onion was the most strenuous part of the prep and it was ready to start cooking in no time. I shredded it up during halftime and we had a nice meal with minimal time away from the game.

1 1/4 t. black pepper

Combine all ingredients except pork and rolls in the slow cooker and mix to combine. Add the pork and cook on low for 8 hours.

After 8 hours, remove pork to a cutting board and shred. Return shredded pork to slow cooker and mix with sauce.
