How to Make Garlic Pulled Pork in a Crock Pot
Aunt Lou here.
I was trying to come up with a new recipe idea and saw our Crock Pot Garlic Chicken Thighs, which was a huge hit around here. I thought it might be good with a pork loin (with a little change). I was actually wrong, it is not just good, it is incredible! The pork loin just fell apart, so it because this Garlic Crock Pot Pulled Pork recipe.
This recipe is great on its own. Seriously, the flavor is just awesome. My oldest had the idea of serving it over rice, and that worked really well. I think it could also be great in a wrap or on a bun. I would love to hear what your ideas are for this in the comments below!
