Notes
Any BBQ pulled pork recipe will work well with this recipe. I provided a basic pulled pork recipe that won't be challenging for most people, but don't be afraid to add your own additions and seasonings.
I recommend using a tomato based BBQ sauce for this recipe.
This dish also tastes great topped with sour cream and green onions.
