Pulled Pork in Crock Pot


Some time ago we shared with you the recipe to prepare pulled pork in a traditional pot, since it is one of our favorite fillings for snacks, and this time we have prepared it in our Crock Pot, where it has been cooked slowly for 8h, it is spectacular!

Ingredients:
- 35 oz of boneless pork loin in one piece
- 1.5 tablespoons of sweet paprika
- 1/2 tablespoon of spicy paprika
- 3 tablespoons of brown sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon of salt
- 2 tablespoons old mustard
- 1/2 tablespoon ground black pepper
- 2 cloves of garlic
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 5 tablespoons of water

Recipe:
- Peel the garlic and cut them into very small squares.
- In a large bowl, add the sweet paprika, spicy paprika, brown sugar, salt, mustard, ground black pepper, garlic and oil.
- Mix everything until the ingredients are well integrated.
- Remove the remaining fatty tissue from the piece of meat.
- Put the meat in the bowl and spread the piece well with the spice mixture until it is completely covered.
- Cover the bowl with film and let it macerate in the fridge for a few hours (I left it a whole night).
- Place the meat inside the bowl of the Crock Pot and also introduce the rest of the spice mixture that has been left in the bowl.
- Pour the 5 tablespoons of water in the bottom.
- Put the lid on and cook for 8 hours in LOW.
- After cooking, remove the meat from the pot and let it rest for a while in a tray, it will be very tender and can be easily crumbled with the help of two forks.
- Take the juice of the meat that has been left in the pot to accompany it as a sauce.


Bon appétit!
