What is pulled pork?
Pulled pork is a type of dish that is typically made by cooking pork shoulder or pork butt in a slow cooker or oven. The meat is cooked until it is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.
Once the meat has been cooked, it is then usually mixed with a barbecue sauce or other seasonings. This dish is often served on a bun or bread as a sandwich, but can also be used in tacos, burritos, or as a topping for pizza.
How do you make pulled pork?
Making pulled pork is quite simple! All you need is some pork shoulder or pork butt, your favorite barbecue sauce or seasonings, and a slow cooker or oven.
If you are using a slow cooker, simply add all of the ingredients to the pot and set it on low. Cook for eight hours or until the meat is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.
If you are cooking the pork in the oven, preheat it to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Place the pork in a baking dish and cover it with barbecue sauce or your favorite seasonings. Bake for about three hours or until the meat is tender and can be easily shredded with a fork.
