Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Recipe | TidyMom (2024)

Fall is my favorite time of the year, the crisp coolweather, colorful fall foliage, boots and scarvesand all of the favorite hearty meals. While I use my slow cooker year round, now is the time I use it the most, filling it with tasty soups, chili, roasts, stews and more. I love tossing a few things in the slow cooker and let it cook all day. It makes my house smell incredible and the prep and cleanup are easy.

The only thing better than crock-pot recipes is making a dish that I can cook once and eat twice.

Recently Kirsten shared her recipe forhard cider pulled pork and I loved that her recipe calls for hard cider. So I combined the amazing pulled pork recipethat I cook in my roaster, and used the WoodChuck Hard Cider for a fabulous Slow Cooker Pulled Pork recipe!

It’s a great dish for football season and postseason baseball!! We’ve been eating pulled pork sandwiches and Buffalo Pulled Pork Nachos!
