Crystal Horton
With a crock pot, pulled pork now becomes easy. We use homemade BBQ sauce for the personal touch. Love this recipe!
Kevin Moore
I make this using a can of root beer instead of water. Comes out amazing!
Judith Nguyen
very easy. the trick is getting the right sauce
James Torres
Easiest and best tasting BBQ I have ever made. Followed directions as written, except I cooked it a couple hours longer than recommended. As long as you like the BBQ sauce you’re using, you can’t go wrong with this recipe.
Ashley Gonzales
So easy and so delicious. We will make this again.
Michael Carney
I love this recipe. It’s great as is, but I decided to add a dry rub to the pork loin roast and have it sit in the fridge overnight (in a jumbo size ziplock bag) and then I mixed a couple of my favorite bbq sauces. Phenomenal!!!!! Everyone in my house devours it every time!
Steven Jackson
Just wow. So easy and delicious.
Tonya Rhodes
Delicious and so simple! I will absolutely be making this again!
Dominique Jones
Easy and delicious! I put the bbq sauce in at the beginning.
Shaun Baker
Turned out GREAT!! What an easy way to make pulled pork. I had never made this before & was worried since I was having a group of ten for dinner; no worries everyone raved. I highly recommend this-it is like pushing the easy button. Barbara
Charles Vazquez
This came out great. I used beef broth instead of water and it came out fantastic. Even made gravy with drippings that is fantastic.
Ronald Rodriguez
Perfect as written. Embarrassed to admit how much everyone ate. Very tender and very tasty.

I made this for Christmas. I used Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce, as it is my son’s favorite brand of sauce. Super easy and extremely delicious! Would definitely make again.
Tammy Wilson
I loved how easy this was, but I used my own BBQ sauce.
Tammy Meyer
My family and guests loved it! The butcher told me it would be dry because the loin doesn’t have a lot of fat, but I had one in my freezer and wanted to use it. It came out very tender and was easy to shred apart. I used Dinosaur BBQ Sauce because it’s all natural with no bad additives and the pulled pork was out of this world!
Nathaniel Peters
This was perfect. I have a big family with different tastes, so after I shredded the pork, I divided it into 3 pans, each with a different sauce, and put them in the oven for 30 minutes. Everyone loved it!
Sarah Webb
Super easy and delicious!! Received rave reviews from everyone!!

So, I messed up a two ingredient recipe, but it still turned out great! I combined the barbecue sauce and pork in the crock pot the whole time. I used Sweet Baby Ray’s Sweet Visalia Onion barbecue sauce. I separated the pork a couple of hours before serving time, and then again before serving. The consistency was still great. Everyone went back for seconds, paired with Hawaiian rolls and coleslaw. I don’t think you can mess up this recipe, even if you did, like me. 🙂

Excellent method- this is exactly the same way I make pulled pork when I’m using the crockpot. Obviously it will only be as flavorful as the BBQ sauce you use, but if you find your finished product bland you can always add some combination of chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne, paprika, ketchup, molasses, or apple cider vinegar to doctor it. I prefer to use a cut of pork that isn’t quite so lean.
Jennifer Collins
Amazing and simple. I filled the croc pot up with water to the top and cooked it for about 10-11 hours and was perfect
Alicia Johnson
So simple and worked great. Cooked 2 small tenderloins at a combined weight of 2.44lbs. At the seven hour mark, I ladled/spooned out all the water I could and shredded the tenderloins right in the crockpot. Poured in a bottle of City BBQ’s mild sauce (19.5oz), stirred it up, and cooked it for the last hour. It was awesome! Girlfriend complained that it was too finely shredded, but that was my fault: I got carried away at how easy it was to pull apart.
