Slow Cooker Coke Pulled Pork
We have added soda to our Slow Cooker Dr. Pepper Pulled Pork and Coke to our Slow Cooker Coke Ribs quite frequently. This time around, we decided to add Coca-Cola to our pulled pork. I am super excited that we gave it a try.
This Coke adds for a nice flavor to the pulled pork and this Crock-pot meal was just so super simple to make. I knew if I added Coke, my entire family would enjoy. Yes, they have quite the addiction to Coca-Cola specifically.
Every time we have cooked with soda, the flavors are amazing. It’s so wild to think that soda can add as much flavor as it does.
This recipe was so good that we have decided to make a crock for our July 4th BBQ. This stuff is so good on a slider roll with a bit of bbq sauce.
Grab yourself a pork shoulder, some Coke, and a few spices. You can toss this in the slow cooker and let it cook all day. No need to be in the kitchen cooking for hours.
