Pulled Pork with Caramelized Onions

This recipe is fantastic! I had extra chipotle in adobo in there and served over nachos with cheddar. The guys used Hawaiian rolls to make sliders with the leftovers. I'd give it more than 5 stars if I could!

Love this recipe. This is a great healthy comfort food recipe. it's especially good with a sweet vinegary coleslaw like this old one from Eating Well. http://www.eatingwell.com/recipe/251546/barbecued-pork-coleslaw-sandwiches

Hi, this recipe sounds awesome & I really want to try, I am in Australia so chipotle chile in adobo sauce is not readily available- can anyone offer a good substitute?

Made this pork to use for the pulled pork torta recipe, also on this site. I love the flavor of the onions and the sauce, though I'll add a little more chipotle when I make it again. I only had one problem with making this: after 4.5 hours on high in my slow cooker, my pork didn't feel tender at all. I ended up putting in the oven for 1 hour on 300. Even after that, it was still a lot harder to shred than I expected. Might have been the particular cut of meat I had. I used a pork shoulder butt that had the joint in it. Must be a tough part. I'll definitely be trying this again with an un-jointed portion of meat. Served this on King's Hawaiian sweet rolls...Amazing!

A Crowd Pleaser and Easy to Make.. The first time I made this, everyone went nuts for it. I'm making it again today for a party tomorrow. This time, I'm offering medium-sized Pop'n Fresh biscuits and small sweet rolls as sliders for everyone to make for themselves. The coleslaw was a great accompaniment as were bread'n butter pickles. You can adjust the heat by adding more of the smoked jalapenos but the amount in the recipe was actually perfect for my crowd. Collards sounds like a good accompaniment. I make mine with red bell peppers, onions, garlic, ham hock and chicken bouillon cube, which I rarely otherwise use. But it adds the required salt as well as flavor and it seems to season it just right. What do I know...I'm a Yankee from the toes up! But I certainly do recommend this Pulled Pork recipe. Pros: Easy to make in the slow cooker.

Delicious Did not use a slow cooker and ended up cooking it in the oven a bit longer to get it to pull. Solid recipe, will be making it again. Pros: low in calories Cons: none

Fantastic Flavor I often find sauces in slow cooker recipes watered down due to the moisture retention or too strong if liquid ingredients were reduced (many recipes I have are adapted from stove top/oven recipes.) Not this one! The chili sauce with the chipotle really marry well and provide a really full flavor to the sauce. The caramelized onions adds to the depth of the flavor. Family loves this one and they're not fond of many of my slow cooker recipes. Even my picky 12 year old son likes this one! Not too spicy, even with the chipotle. Pros: Easy to make Cons: None!

YUK! WAY too sweet! I made this with an amazing cut of local free range pork, so I expected it to be amazing. I followed recipe, even went out to buy chili sauce (splurged on heinz brand, despite that both brands have high fructose corn syrup-YUK!), excluded the chipotles b/c too spicy for my kids. It was too much sauce, too wet, and WAY TOO SWEET. YUK! We can barely eat it. My daughter asked to have the sauce rinsed off (that helped) and my son didn't want seconds. This is unusual for both. Me, if I put enough chipotle Tabasco on it, i can tolerate it. I will admit, being from Chapel Hill, NC, I'm not a fan of traditional sweet tomato-based BBQ sauce (though my son loves BBQ chips), we usually like vinegar-based sauces ,is that Lexington style? But this was WAY over the top. I'll have to try my own twist next time: NO added sugar, and see what happens.Pros: Meat cooked nicely to shredCons: Sickly sweet!

Delicious! I made this according to the recipe but excluded the chipotle chile because I thought it might make it hot an my son is a girl when it comes to spicy food. I started it later than planned, so cut up the roast into 8 big chunks instead of one large roast and it was done in 3 hours. It was amazing! And my son even wanted seconds! Next time I think I might add some spiciness though. Pros: Super easy and not time consuming

So good! This recipe was awesome! I followed exactly how the recipe reads except I made my chili sauce because I didn't have any on hand. Great recipe! Pros: Super easy Cons: You have to smell it cook all day

The smell of it cooking will have you craving it all dayI made this with boneless pork chops and used a masher to break up the meat after it had cooked. When I added the sugar, it brought out the water from the onions and getting them to carmelize took a lot longer than the recipe stated. Was very tasty. The pork had a nice heat to it.

The Best Pulled Pork I've Ever HadThis was fantastic. Put it in the crock pot and just let it cook away. I used a boneless sirloin tip roast (very little fat on it) and brown sugar (I cut down on the brown sugar because I don't like it sweet). Served on a bun with my favorite BBQ sauce slathered on the bottom, topped with cole slaw and ate away. Will never use another pulled pork recipe again. This is the best.

Amazingly goodThis. Is. Amazing. I barely had to "pull" this pork it was so tender at the end. Mine took only about 6.5-7 hours on low in the crock pot. I love the smoky flavor of the optional chipotles, and the meat is just melty and tender. Prepping the sauce wasn't as fast as I thought it would be, but nor was it difficult. I would highly recommend.Pros: Smoky and tenderCons: Preparing the sauce wasn't as quick as I expected

Excellent !This was the first time I had every made pulled pork. I am not a huge meat fan, but my husband and kids are ;-) This was a great and easy recipe and we all loved it ! I worked from home during a snowstorm here in NY today, took about 15-20 minutes to prepare, threw it into the slow cooker for 8 hours and voila ! dinner was served. I just served it with egg noodles and some green beans, but was perfect, even for my 15 year old picky eater !Pros: Easy to Make, Great Payoff !
