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 obsessed with your crockpot chicken tacos and am sure this is going to be another favorite crockpot chicken recipe in our house!

    P.S. I had a cake craving last night and jumped on your blog to look up cupcake recipes… you have 101 cupcake recipes?!!

      Yea… about those cupcakes. I went through a phase at the beginning of my blog. And I’ve been blogging 3.5 years, so that’s really only about 30/year…

    Sounds delicious, but I’m sure I’d have to just add one of those chiles 🙂

    Nothing bad about pulled chicken. Nothing. Love all the flavors that the chicken was simmering in. Bet this was awesome!

    Has anyone tried freezing this? I dont eat meat, but I am thinking about making this for my husband but there is no way he could eat a whole pot to himself.

    • beantownbaker — May 7th, 2012 @ 10:10 am

      Like most crockpot meals, this meat freezes just fine. I like to portion it out into individual sized portions prior to freezing so you can just grab one and go.

    Hi! I made this last year and it was a huge hit. I want to make it again for a holiday pot luck, but when I looked at the recipe today, it seemed to have the directions listed twice, and no ingredient amounts. I was able to find the recipe at eating Well, but wanted to let you know that there may be something wrong here.

      Thanks for the update. I am fixing the post now. Glad this recipe was a success for you!
