Crock Pot Pulled Pork is by far the easiest way to make pulled pork. This recipe uses pork tenderloin, bbq sauce, onion, garlic and seasoning.
Smoked pulled pork is fabulous, but very time consuming. This crockpot version makes it quick and easy. Great for family night, pot luck, tailgating, game night, or any time. If there are any leftovers, pulled pork freezes well
Pork tenderloin for pulled pork is perfect, this tender cut of meat actually saves time in cooking, it’s easy to shed, has a minimal amount of fat to remove.
Serve the crock pot pulled pork with your favorite rolls, bbq sauce along with a side of Mac-n-Cheese, and coleslaw.
Money Saving Tip: The family pack of pork tenderloin is more economical than buying them individually. This recipe uses 3 tenderloins, if the family pack has 4 tenderloins, freeze one for latter.

So easy…..I was hesitant using pork tenderloin. I was amazed at how quickly it was to shred and it doesn’t take as long as pork shoulder does, a lot less fat! Big hit here, great for taking skiing or pot luck!
