You guys… I have been DREAMING about those amazing low carb Crock Pot BBQ Cola Ribs we made a while back and that amazing sauce. So much so that I decided we HAD to make it into a pulled pork too… and so we did. This Crock Pot Cola Pulled Pork is not only low carb, it is also very freezer friendly AND left over friendly. We like making this up as a main dish and then turning the leftovers into tacos and ( recipe coming soon) grilled Stuffed Avocados… oh-my-lands does it taste good! If you don’t care about carbs, feel free to substitute the coke zero for a regular cola, root beer, Dr. Pepper or even Cream Soda if you are feeling adventurous!

 How to Make Pulled Pork in a Crock Pot

It couldn’t be easier to make pulled pork in a crock pot. It is truly a toss and go recipe that turns out amazing every time. Just throw your pork roast in your slow cooker and mix the remaining ingredients and pour on top. Cook for 8-10 hours and boom, you have amazing pulled pork every time. You can serve with your favorite BBQ sauce OR you can reduce the juices from the pork down to make your own amazing sauce (AND it is low carb!). You just remove the meat and cook the sauce using the browning feature on your multicooker (OR in a sauce pan on your stove if you are using a traditional slow cooker). Stir it frequently until it reduces in size by about half and thickens up to coat your spoon. Shred your meat with two forks and return to sauce and you are done. It is so yummy and freezes well.

Author: Cris

Ingredients

• 1 tbsp butter melted
• 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
• 1 1/2 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 1/4 cups Coke Zero
• 3/4 cup tomato paste
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
• 3 tbsp mustard
• 1 tsp cajun seasoning
• 1 tsp liquid smoke
• 1/2 tsp paprika
• 1 tbsp cumin
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 5 lb pork shoulder roast
• salt to taste

Instructions

1. Place your pork in a 6 quart slow cooker, salting it well.

2. Mix up remaining ingredients into a sauce and pour on top.

3. Cook for 8-10 hours on low or it is super tender.

4. Optional Step: Remove meat and cook down sauce in a saucepan, stirring frequently until it reduces into a thick sauce.

5. Shred with two forks and serve with juices or sauce.

Recipe Notes

• We like to use our multicookers (like the Ninja) to use the saute feature to reduce the sauce at the end. However, if you are using a traditional 6 quart slow cooker, you can just heat your sauce in a sauce pan on the stove instead if you prefer to serve your pork with a sauce instead of just the juices.
• We used boneless pork shoulder. You could also use pork loin, it may just get done quicker.
• If you don't care about carbs, feel free to substitute the coke zero for a regular cola, root beer, Dr. Pepper or even Cream Soda if you are feeling adventurous!
• Freeze leftovers in an airtight container or freezer bag.
• As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly depending on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish.
• All slow cookers cook differently, so cooking times are always a basic guideline and should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.

Leftover Ideas

This Crock Pot Cola Pulled Pork makes a LOT of pork. We oftentimes freeze a lot of our leftovers to make lunch easy on another day. We like to make tacos, sandwiches, salads and even these YUMMY stuffed avocados with the leftovers. Check out the video below to see the grilled avocados in action!
