Crockpot Pulled Pork with Coleslaw from Lauren’s Latest eCookbook + { a GIVEAWAY CLOSED!}
Happy Memorial Day, friends!
Today, we are welcoming summer with wide open arms. That’s right. It’s time to warm up those vocal chords (….”Take us out to the ball game“), fire up those gas grills, get those toes painted, find your red solo cup, and dust off the outside patio furniture. Summer is here!
Now that summer has officially arrived, we figured it was time to share a recipe with y’all that screams backyard barbecues. We're talking about a little ol’ slow cooker style pulled pork sammie with . . . wait for it. . . a favorite coleslaw west of the red gingham tablecloth. Our fellow food blogger buddy, Lauren (which we might add has a favorite name EVER!), recently came out with her sassy-Mcsassy eCookbook: Everyday Ingredient, Extraordinary Meals – 30 Ridiculously Simple Family Favorite Recipes . This eCookbook is full of page-to-page drool-tastic, mouth watering, simple recipes that you will adore.
In fact, we had a hard time narrowing down what to make! Between the white chicken chili to the fail proof pizza dough to the cinnabon cinnamon rolls, this eCookbook has it all. But! When we laid our eyes on the slow cooker pulled pork with coleslaw recipe, our heart skipped a beat and we knew this dish had to be made. Crockpot? Yes, please!
We made these pulled pork sandwiches on Friday and in less than 24 hours there were gone! Vanished. Sayonara. The pulled pork was tender and juicy after being in the slow cooker for six hours, but had the reliable zing from the barbecue sauce. Plus, the coleslaw; forget. about. it. If you only made one sandwich for the rest of this summer, it has to be this pulled pork.
So, Lauren being the two-snaps around the world blogger she is, has generously offered to giveaway a copy of her eCookbook to one lucky reader! That’s right. We see Cinnabon cinnamon rolls and pulled pork sammies in your near future!
Here are the details!

Crockpot Pulled Pork with Coleslaw from Lauren's Latest eCookbook
Yield: Serves 6Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 6 hours
Ingredients:
for the pork:
1 cup beef broth
2 1/2 cups barbecue sauce
3 lbs boneless pork shoulder
salt and pepper
1/2 onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, grated
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
for the coleslaw:
1 16oz. bag coleslaw mix
1/2 small sweet onion, diced
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup white vinegar
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
salt and pepper
6 Kaiser rolls
Directions:
for the pork:
In a cold slow cooker, stir beef broth and 1 cup BBQ sauce together. Sprinkle pork shoulder with salt and pepper. Place into slow cooker and sprinkle onions overtop. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or high for 4 hours. Pork is done when it is fork tender and can shred easily. Remove pork from liquid in slow cooker. Pour off fat and half cooking liquid reserv- ing the rest. Shred pork removing any fat as you go. Place back into warm slow cooker. Once meat is all shredded, stir in grated garlic, remaining bbq sauce, brown sugar and mustard. Stir in reserved cooking liquid as needed to keep meat tender. Keep warm in slow cooker.
for the coleslaw:
For the slaw, stir coleslaw mix together with diced onion. Set aside. In small bowl, whisk mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper together to create dressing. Pour over cab- bage and toss. Store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
Serve pork on dinner or Kaiser rolls with coleslaw
