I looooove pulled pork, and this dish (eating it for dinner plus two days of leftovers) makes me almost wary to eat even my favourite pulled pork recipes again. It was just really dry and watery, maybe because of the water, and I'm so used to having a thicker sauce. It also wasn't spicy - my husband is pretty much Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-1392161233564797012010-12-27T07:32:00.953-08:002010-12-27T07:32:00.953-08:00I made this once for my boyfriend, and he suggeste...I made this once for my boyfriend, and he suggested I make it again to take to his antique motorcycle club's holiday dinner. I dressed it up with Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce. There was so much amazing food at this potluck, and my crock pot was near the end of the serving line, that I thought for sure we'd be eating the pulled pork leftovers for a day or two (not that we'd mind!).Jennifer Goselinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-20621651337169258262010-02-17T07:13:23.626-08:002010-02-17T07:13:23.626-08:00Hi--LOVE your website!

I was thinking some sort of stock--but not sure how veggie or chicken stock would impact the taste. Would prefer those, but probably would try beefstock next time? Is there pork stock? Thanks!

If you have stuff that's terribly baked/burnt on, fill the stoneware with hot water, add 1 tablespoon or so of dishwasher powder and either a fabric softener dryer sheet or a gollop of liquid fabric softener and let the stoneware soak overnight. Then run the stoneware through the dishwasher like normal.<br /><br />Stephanie ODeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08618710485017373256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5090591139439935093.post-44559046535889764032009-08-11T11:06:22.413-07:002009-08-11T11:06:22.413-07:00Hubby has been begging to try pulled pork in the c...Hubby has been begging to try pulled pork in the crockpot.. i use mine about twice a week and i love idea of doing it 365 days a year :) <br />although just a side note--- how do you clean yours, by hand or dishwasher?

They are really young: ages 4, 2, and 1 so they are very picky and dont like anything that doesn't look like a chicken finger. Ugh. I put the pork on kaiser rolls with american cheese and mayo. I thought it was pretty good, but I think the recipe definitely calls for some salt. I added some and it helped a bit.
