Pulled pork with BBQ sauce is a dish that takes me back to the heart of Midwestern summers, where family gatherings were incomplete without the aroma of slow-cooked meats wafting through the air. This recipe is a tribute to those times, capturing the essence of community and comfort. It’s a dish that brings people together, perfect for a casual get-together or a hearty family meal. The slow cooker does all the hard work, transforming a humble pork shoulder into tender, flavorful shreds that soak up the tangy sweetness of barbecue sauce. It’s a reminder of simpler times, when meals were made with love and shared with those who mattered most.
Pulled pork pairs beautifully with classic sides like creamy coleslaw, buttery cornbread, or a fresh potato salad. For a true Midwestern feast, serve it alongside baked beans and pickles. If you’re feeling adventurous, try it on a soft bun with a slice of cheddar cheese and a dollop of coleslaw right on top. Don’t forget a tall glass of sweet tea or lemonade to wash it all down.
