Easy Pulled Pork Sandwiches
You need a slow cooker for this recipe. I use whatever size is appropriate for how much meat I am cooking. You can easily double this amount with a large slow cooker. It's best to have the meat snuggled close together, the less empty space in the slow cooker, the better.
Ingredients
3 Lbs. Country Style Pork Ribs, boneless
2 standard size bottles of your favorite BBQ sauce
BBQ Spice Rub - optional
6-8 of your favorite buns
Directions
Salt and pepper your ribs on both sides, and rub BBQ spices into both sides of meat.(if you are using.) If the rub has salt in it, go easy on the salt, or omit it.
Add meat to slow cooker. Pour a bottle of sauce over meat, make sure it's all covered. If the bottom ribs look a little bare, sometimes I add a 1/2 inch of water to the bottom or crock pot.
Set timer for 8-10 hours on low. (10 hours is better.) FYI - If you have a tendency to keep opening the lid of the slow cooker to see what's going on in there, just keep in mind doing that adds 40 minutes more of cooking time for the cooker to come back up to temperature and regain the heat it's lost.
After 10 hours has passed, remove the meat from the cooker. Using 2 forks, shred it. Add a little of the cooking juices, to add some moisture it it. I add maybe 2-4 Tablespoons. That liquid will be watery looking, if you add water earlier or not, since it has pork juices and melted fat added to it as well as the BBQ sauce.
Add as much of the 2nd bottle of BBQ sauce as you like, I use maybe a half a bottle at this point. The rest of the bottle I use to add a little to the meat later, when reheating the next day, as well as sometimes I add some to my bun.
Toast a bun, spread with butter or a little more BBQ sauce, add meat (and maybe some coleslaw) and enjoy!
The meat reheats well for a few days, in the microwave, or in the oven, covered.
