One thing about pulled pork is that people automatically think you have to eat it as a sandwich, which is so not true! You do not have to eat it as a sandwich only. I love to make cilantro lime rice and put that juicy grape puled pork right on top of it! This is so good! I also like to make a pulled pork wrap as well with some coleslaw inside of it! I’ve even made a juicy grape pulled pork casserole. You can do so much with this pulled pork that possibilities are endless! However, you want to use it you will be happy because it tasted delicious!

“This pulled pork is extra juicy thanks to your slow cooker.”
Pulled pork is juicy, but your slow cooker makes it even better! Who loves their slow cooker? I do!
