Pulled Pork Sandwiches

Even though we're into Spring, don't put away your slow cooker yet. You can season and cook a pork roast in your Crockpot, and then serve on buns or bread as Pulled Pork Sandwiches.

If you are looking for a low-carb option, then skip the rolls and serve over fresh salad greens. Either way, you'll love this easy recipe.

Ingredients:

1 pork roast (approx. 3-4 pounds)
1/2 c. sliced yellow onions
3 packets sloppy joe seasoning mix
1 1/2 t. lemon pepper
1 t. paprika
1 bottle chili sauce, or use a bottle of BBQ sauce for a less spicy option
1/2 c. beef broth
2-3 T. olive oil

Directions:

In a large pot over medium heat, warm oil and brown pork roast on each side, about 5 minutes, turning.

Combine remaining ingredients in a medium mixing bowl.

Place pre-browned pork and onion slices into Crock Pot and pour mixture over top. Cover and cook on high 4-5 hours, or low 8-9 hours.

Remove the roast from the pot and shred. Reserve sauce from the pot and use to pour over the top of the pork, whether you're enjoying open face sandwiches, or a salad.
