This Dr. Pepper slow cooker pulled pork is a staple at our house!  

In can be made in a big batch and used in a number of recipes!  Today I used it to make these sliders!  

Dr. Pepper Pulled Pork

Ingredients:

1 pork butt/shoulder (3-5 lbs)

2 cans of Dr. Pepper- the real deal, no diet

12-18 oz of your favorite BBQ sauce, divided

Slow Cooker liners

Pulled Pork Directions:

Line your slow cooker with a liner and set pork inside.  Top with Dr. Pepper and BBQ sauce, leaving a little BBQ sauce for topping at the end.  Cook 6-8 hours on high.  When meat is ready you should be able to easily shred it with two forks.

Once your pork is done (you can even make it overnight!), it will take about 20 minutes to make your slider!

 

Slider Ingredients:

Cooked Pulled pork

1 package of rolls

Cheese of your choice (we used white cheddar)

Butter

Glaze Ingedients:

2 tablespoons of butter, melted While

1 teaspoon Italian seasoning 

1 teaspoon of brown sugar

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

Cut rolls in half with a large knife, keeping them connected.

Butter the rolls and toast for 3-5 minutes or until lightly browned.

Take out of the oven and add pulled pork and thinly sliced cheese.

Place back in the oven for 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted.

While you are waiting for the cheese to melt, mix ingredients for the glaze.

Take out of the oven and put sliders together.  

Brush on the butter glaze and enjoy!

A savory meal that is great for dinner or gameday!  

You can also use this slow cooker pulled pork for this recipe with a corbread waffle and slaw!

Sounds like a strange combo, but it is SO good!
