This gluten-free pulled pork comes together so quickly with minimal effort right in the crock pot. It’s packed with flavor and makes the best-pulled pork sandwiches. You’re simply slow-cooking a pork roast until it’s fork tender then assembling sandwiches with your favorite toppings.
Place pork in the crock pot, fat side up. Then, pour beef broth, minced garlic, and vinegar around the pork.
Next, rub the Dijon mustard and brown sugar into the pork. (I like to wear nitrile gloves).
Combine all dry ingredients (chili powder, dry mustard, garlic powder, thyme, and salt) in a small bowl and whisk together.
Rub all dry ingredients into all sides of the pork. Then pour the bbq sauce around the pork.
Cook on high for 5-6 hours or on low for 7-9 hours. Cooking time will truly vary depending on your individual crockpot, as some get hotter than others. The pork is done when the internal temperature reaches 190-200℉.
Using two forks, shred the pork.
Assemble the sandwiches:
For these pork sandwiches, I combine 4 tablespoon of left over juice in the crockpot with 4 tablespoon of bbq sauce and poured it onto the pork after the sandwiches were assembled.
The barbecue pulled pork is done when it falls apart. If you try, lifting the roast out of the crockpot, it will break apart. If your meat doesn’t shred easily, it may not be all the way done. Check the temperature with a thermometer for 190°F to 200°F.
For a shorter cooking time, you can cut the roast into four cubes prior to cooking.
Try not to open the lid too often, you will lose heat and increase your cooking time.
Before shredding your pulled pork, spoon some of the juice over top of the pork. Once shredded, stir the pulled pork into the juice.
