Best Slow Cooker Pulled Pork recipes

Looking for a simple slow cooker pulled pork recipe?  You’ve come to the right place.  This is one of the best pulled pork recipes as the end result tastes great with either regular buns, fun sliders, as sandwich on bread or served up with rice.  The taste is different from barbeque pulled pork and I like this recipe as it has less sugar without the bbq sauce.  There are also more flavors playing in.  Slight tastes of cinnamon, hoisin sauce and ginger go a long way and make this recipe a winner.

Some may refer to this recipe as Asian pulled pork recipe or just Asian sliders.  With soy, hoisin and ginger that makes a lot of sense.  My quest for the best slow cooker pulled pork recipes came to fruition after a trip to Maui last year.  I was so pleased with the food in Hawaii, and each day was tempted to have a diet of pulled pork and ahi tuna, two dishes that were better tasting there than anywhere else I’ve visited, by far.  We were able to mix it up with some locals and visit a party that had even better food than many of the restaurants around.  The Hawaiian people have such pride in so many things, and their food falls right in-line.  I didn’t get the full home recipe that day but did get a couple of pointers on how to replicate the amazing pork taste, enjoy.

    This looks absolutely yummy! And anything that can be prepared in the slow cooker to save time and mess cleanup is a PLUS! I wonder if this would be a good recipe to freeze for camping trips? Thank you for sharing!

    Your recipe looks good and your pictures are always so beautiful.

    A few years ago I tried a similar recipe for pulled pork. My list called for apple cider vinegar, and while it smelled really good, it left a nasty after taste. Maybe I used too much. I know my husband was not crazy about it either.

    While the pork looks tasty….that ratatouille looks DIVINE!!! I am a veggie girl so I would eat that whole bowl up!

    This looks very tasty. We don’t eat a lot of pork in our home, but I will keep this recipe in mind next time I need something to cook all day and be ready easily when I get home from work.

    Okay I know this is crazy, but I don’t like meat except for pork. I think it is because I am from North Carolina. 😉 I LOVE bacon, pulled pork, and baked pork. This recipe looks like something I should add to my pork recipe reservoir. 🙂
