Reviews
This is THE BEST recipe for pulled pork. I have been making this recipe for 10 years now. It was one of those recipes printed on the package the pork was in and my husband decided to give it a try for a potluck at work. Oh my goodness! We have never had a better pulled pork before and never had a reason to try a different recipe.
