Crockpot Hawaiian Pulled Pork
We all agree that pulled pork is awesome, right? I mean, it cooks on low in the crockpot for hours and is just falling apart and so tender. There’s really nothing better. For quite some time now, I’ve been making this Crockpot Pulled Pork. It gets rave reviews. It’s delicious and everything you could ask for in a saucy spicy pulled pork.
But sometimes you don’t want saucy. And you don’t want spicy. You just want porky. (Is that a word? I’m not sure, but I’m going with it). This pulled pork is AMAZING. I literally woke up the morning after I put it in the crockpot – did I mention I cooked it for 20 hours? – anyways, I woke up the next morning and was confused. I saw Hubby still snoring away in bed. But I smelled bacon. Who was cooking bacon in my house that Saturday morning? I stumbled in the kitchen, clearly confused. Then upon seeing my crockpot, remembered that we had pork cooking low and slow. For 20 hours. Yea, just let that one process for a minute.
When Hubby did wake from his slumber, he hit up a local bakery for some rolls and we enjoyed Crockpot Hawaiian Pulled Pork sandwiches. I topped them with provolone and melted the cheese under the broiler for a minute. It’s seriously amazing what you can make with three simple ingredients and 20 hours in the crockpot.

I am Jen the Beantown Baker. Engineer by day and baking maven by night. Hubby serves as my #1 fan and official taste tester. We got hitched back in 2006. Barefoot. In the sand. With the waves crashing behind us. It was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. 
Thanks for posting the taco seasoning recipe. My husband and I make tacos all the time and were always buying those silly packets. Turns out we have all of the spices we need in our cupboard already! Looking forward to trying it!
Great idea. I tend to use the slow cooker more in cooler months, don’t know why, but I think I’ll try this – sure looks good.

A lot of people say that Libby, but I would argue that it’s even better in the summer because it doesn’t heat up your kitchen to cook dinner. We use ours about once a week.
Oh, man! That does look fantastic! I’m gonna give it a try as you were spot on with the 40clove garlic crockpot recipe!

Yum – everything is better when you make it yourself – even taco seasoning!
I love crockpot cooking!
This sounds really great! I am going to be using my crock pot a lot more as I get deeper into nursing school.
Also, did you get your new lens? That first picture is really great 🙂
