The slow cooker not only makes this an easy meal, but it keeps the pork tender, moist and loaded with flavor. The sandwiches are so comforting, they seem anything but light. —Beki Kosydar-Krantz of Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania

This is a keeper, the hubby loved it. I did up 4 tenderloins and tripled the sauce ingredients and it turned out great. The leftovers went into the freezer for a later date. Even reheated the meat still taste like you just made it. It is a hit at our house.

Delicious! I cannot wait to make this again. We quadrupled the recipe for our Memorial Day BBQ and it was a hit. Very tender, moist and flavorful sandwiches.

These were absolutely delicious. Made this for sunday dinner. Put everything in the crock pot before church. I did not have worcestershire sauce, so I used steak sauce and some tabasco sauce. I had a 2lb pork sirloin roast. I doubled the sauce ingredients but it seemed like a lot of sauce, so I poured only 2/3 over the roast in the crock pot and reserved the rest. After I shredded the pork, I put it in a saucepan with the juices from the crock and added some of the reserved sauce to thicken it up a bit. This is definitely going into my personal recipe binder. Can't wait to have them as leftovers.

Made these for our family reunion....they were a BIG hit. I had a little bit left over so the next day I bake a few potatoes and served the remaining meat over them. Yummy!

I made this recipe for my family and they just loved it. This is honestly the best pulled pork sandich that I have ever eaten. The key to this is the pork tenderloin. It makes the sandwich so juicy and it never dries out like regular pulled pork, even when it's rewarmed the next day.

This was just ok for us. It wasn't bad, but I will try a different recipe next time.

I loved the ease of this recipe and it was really good. It could use a little more BBQ (for my taste) and I didn't like the long strings of meat, but it was really good.

Rave reviews from my husband. I doubled the recipe for leftovers and WILL be making again. Added dill pickles to the sandwich which was yummy.

The meat is so tender & juicy. We added some bbq sauce after cooking for extra flavor, but the meat alone has enough flavor to stand alone. Delicious!

This is our favorite pulled pork recipe. It is super easy and has a great flavor. I make it when I bring a meal to other people and they always rave about it.
