Family Reunion Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sandwiches

When you want to feed a crowd, but you don’t want to fuss, reach for this Family Reunion Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sandwiches recipe and everyone will be happy, and well fed!!

These Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sandwiches are just like the ones I made while we were on a family reunion vacation this past summer. We spent a week in cabins on a lake in Wisconsin with most of my husband’s brothers and sisters. To say these delicious sandwiches were hit with the crowd is a huge understatement! 

**Please Note – The printable recipe card with detailed instructions and complete ingredient measurements for making Family Reunion Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Sandwiches is available near the end of this post. 

The ingredients;

• 7-8 pound pork butt
• Apple Cider Vinegar
• Brown Sugar
• Pineapple Juice
• Prepared Horseradish
• Salt and Pepper
• Pretzel Rolls, or buns
• Prepared BBQ Sauce
• Coleslaw for serving (not pictured)

For our vacation, I brought the frozen pork butt from home and used it like ice in our cooler for the 8-hour drive. Once we got to our cabin, I placed the pork butt in the fridge to thaw completely.

The day of our full family dinner all I had to do was put the ingredients into the slow cooker and then go about our day of sightseeing, fishing, and playing games.

That evening when we all gathered to eat, all I needed to do was shred the pork and place it on the table along with some buns and coleslaw. Easy peasy! Dinner is served!

The easy instructions;

• Place the pork butt into a large slow cooker. 
• Pour apple cider vinegar over the pork and season with salt and pepper.

• Add brown sugar, pineapple juice, and prepared horseradish sauce over the pork.

• Set the slow cooker to high and cook, covered, for 8 hours.

• Shred the pork with two forks (removing fat, as desired), and place in a large dish along with some of the juice from the cooker.

• Serve on buns with some of the juice, BBQ sauce, and top with coleslaw (not pictured), if desired.
