The only way this slow-cooker barbecue pork
sandwich recipe could be easier is if you make it with a bottle of
prepared barbecue sauce - but that won't guarantee that
authentic homemade flavor! While I have your attention, I
must tell you this slow cooker BBQ Pork Sandwich recipe is
not only very easy, it will give you that delicious and
distinct home-cooked flavor that can only be derived from
combining all the right flavors and letting them simmer in
your own kitchen. All you |

need is a little ketchup, water, flavorings and spices, sliced pork and some hamburger
buns, French rolls or even toasted bread, and you're good to
go! Just add the sauce ingredients and sliced pork to your
slow cooker, and walk away until dinner is ready!
Because most meats become tender
when cooked in a slow-cooker, you can use your favorite cut
of pork for this recipe. Pork shoulder or butt works very
well, but you can use any other cuts as well (photo shows
this pork sandwich made with sliced pork loin). This comes
in handy if you have any leftover pork or pork that's been
in your freezer longer than you can recall. (This recipe can
also |
|
be made with chicken or beef.)
As for the bread, you can use soft buns (any style), toasted
buns or even spread a little butter on the buns before
broiling for added flavor. Of course,
the beauty of slow-cooked meals is that no stirring is
required, and when dinner is ready, you get to sit down to a
tasty meal, feeling like someone else has prepared it for
you. This BBQ Pork Sandwich recipe is terrific with a side
of
potato salad, potato chips,
baked beans,
corn on the cob, dill
pickle slices and the list goes on. |
