Slow Cooker Pulled Pork Lettuce Wraps
If you have 10 minutes, you can make this delicious low carb pulled pork recipe and you're free to do something else while the slow cooker takes care of the rest!
Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork shoulder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons dried rosemary
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon ground fennel seeds
- 2 teaspoons cocoa powder
- Sea salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/3 cup chicken broth
- 8 iceberg or butter lettuce leaves
Instructions
- Combine all spices and the cocoa in a small bowl and season with salt and black pepper, to taste.
- Rub the spice mix over the pork shoulder and transfer to a 5 or 6 quart slow cooker crock.
- Add the chicken broth to the crock and cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6 hours.
- Once the cooking time is complete, use two forks to pull the pork apart while it's still in the slow cooker.
- Allow the pulled pork to remain in the juices with the slow cooker set to “warm” for 20-30 minutes to absorb even more flavor.
- To serve, fill each lettuce leaf with this creamy & crunchy broccoli slaw (linked in the post) and top with the pulled pork.
- Enjoy!
