Slow Cooker Texas Pulled Pork

Step 1

Pour the oil into the slow cooker.

Step 2

Carefully place the pork into the pot, turning to coat in the oil.

Step 3

Add in the BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and chicken broth, stirring around the meat to mix together.

Step 4

Add in the brown sugar, yellow mustard, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, onion, garlic, and thyme.

Step 5

Mix the seasonings into the sauce, turning the pork to coat.

Step 6

Put the lid on and cook on high for five to six hours - or on low for 10 to 12 hours.

Step 7

Test that the pork is at the right temperature and that it will easily shred with a fork. Carefully remove the pork and place it on a tray or chopping board. Using two forks, pull the meat apart until completely shredded.

Step 8

Carefully add the meat back into the slow cooker and stir into the juices. Leave the meat to rest and soak up the flavors for 15 minutes.

Step 9

Spread the burger buns with the butter and toast until golden brown, in a skillet over medium heat.

Spoon the pulled pork into the burgers. Serve as a bun, or with added slaw.
