Healthy Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sandwiches

This pulled pork recipe is easy, delicious and healthy.

Prep Time10 minutes minutes

Cook Time8 hours hours

Servings - 4 servings

Ingredients 

1x2x3x

• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
• 2 1/2 lbs. lean pork roast
• 3 garlic cloves diced
• 1/2 cup ketchup
• 2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 2 Tbsp mustard
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1/4 cup water
• 12 smallish whole wheat buns

Instructions

• In a small bowl, combine the last 9 ingredients (not including the buns!).
• Sprinkle the onion slices on the bottom of the slow cooker. Place the pork roast on top.
• Pour the sauce over the pork. Cook on high for 4 hours or on low about 7 to 8 hours.
• Cool the pork and chill until ready to shred.
• Take the pork out and shred it. I prefer to just shred it apart with my hands, this is why I wait until it is cold.
• Return the pork to the sauce and mix together. Store in fridge. The longer it sits in the fridge, the better the flavors.
• About a half hour before serving, reheat on the stove. Serve in the buns or biscuits with veggies.
