Pulled Pork BBQ Sandwiches

Pulled Pork BBQ Sandwiches

I usually buy meat when it is on sale and I stock up. When I buy pork ribs, for example, I divide them into freezer bags and freeze them in portions we will use (for our family, 3-4 ribs per bag). I used to make pork ribs in the oven…they were fine, but not great. Then I discovered I could put my frozen pork ribs in a crock-pot in the morning and by supper-time, they would be moist and tender and would pull-apart really easily! That was an exciting discovery for me!

Pulled Pork BBQ Sandwiches

Serves: 3-4

Ingredients:
3 boneless pork ribs (mine are frozen)
3 oz. can tomato paste
1/3 cup water
1/2 Tbsp. honey
2 tsp. apple cider vinegar
2 tsp. olive oil
1/2 tsp. chili powder
1/2 tsp. ground mustard
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/8 tsp. garlic salt

Directions:
1. Put frozen pork ribs in a crock-pot on low for 6-8 hours. (If they are not frozen, less time will be needed.) Shred with a fork and leave the pork in the pot.
2. Combine all the rest of the ingredients in a saucepan and cook for a few minutes on medium-low. Taste and adjust spices according to taste. You may also want to add more water to make the sauce thinner, if desired.
3. Pour sauce into crock-pot and stir to coat.

*Serve over Grain-Free Sandwich Bread or by itself! Enjoy!
*The sauce was good by itself, but when mixed with the juices of the pork and the pork itself, it became more mild in taste. Feel free to add more spices to your liking!
