Easy and tender pulled pork sliders made in a slow cooker, perfect for parties or a casual meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3–4 lb pork shoulder (Boston butt)
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Slider buns
  • Optional toppings: coleslaw, pickles

Instructions

  1. Place sliced onion in the bottom of your slow cooker.
  2. Trim excess fat from the pork shoulder and place it on top of the onions.
  3. In a bowl, whisk together BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and smoked paprika.
  4. Pour the sauce mixture over the pork. Season with salt and pepper.
  5. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours, until the pork is tender and shreds easily.
  6. Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.
  7. Skim fat from the cooking liquid in the slow cooker, then return the shredded pork to the liquid and stir to coat.
  8. Serve the pulled pork on slider buns with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • For best results, use pork shoulder (Boston butt) as it has enough fat to keep the meat moist.
  • You can make the pulled pork ahead of time and reheat it gently.
  • This recipe is great for meal planning and can be frozen for later.
  • Consider serving with a side of coleslaw for a classic BBQ pairing.
