Mississippi Pulled Pork Recipe

This Mississippi Pulled Pork is one of the easiest and most delicious recipes you can make with your crockpot! It’s an amazing dump and go recipe that tastes so good served as a sandwich with mayo and a slice of melty cheese!

There is just something about pulled pork in all of its savory goodness that brings me comfort on days that are just a bit harder on the heart. I’ve had a few of those days this past week, so I’ve been doing some cooking and baking to help ease the ache a bit. There’s not much that a big bowl of Mac and cheese, some fudgy brownies, or one of these Mississippi Pulled Pork sandwiches can’t fix.

This Mississippi Pulled Pork is actually a spin-off of THE most popular recipe on my blog these days; Mississippi Pot Roast, made in the slow cooker. If you haven’t tried it before I seriously urge you to do it! It has rave reviews and for good reason; it is THE best pot roast you’ll ever eat. I promise you that!

Once you try it, you will know what I’m talking about. It is so savory and flavorful, and I knew those flavors would lend really well to other cuts of meat.

We almost always have a pork shoulder or Boston Butt in the freezer because my husband smokes them on his Big Green Egg pretty regularly. I decided to pull one out the other day and give it a whirl with the Mississippi Pot Roast ingredients, but instead make it into pulled pork sandwiches.

Y’all, this decision was one of the best ones I’ve made in a long time! These are SO good!

These Mississippi Pulled Pork Sandwiches taste so good with just a slice of cheese and dollop of mayo, but you could totally get creative with the ingredients. And, since pulled pork is such a versatile dish, you could even serve it over rice, as a salad, etc.

    I use mild banana pepper rings instead of the peperoncinis. I just scatter them around the pork, beef, or chicken when I make it. Usually add a small splash of the liquid from the jar, too! Adds a little bit of something you don’t get from the peperoncinis! Tried it when I was out of the peperoncinis, and we liked it better.

    Love, love, love this recipe with a beef roast and with chicken. Even my 3 and 5 year olds tear it up! I just threw everything in the Crockpot to try it with a Boston Butt for the first time. Hoping it’s just as delicious!!

    You just saved the day. I have a pork butt in my freezer and just couldn’t find it in myself to make a regular roast OR bbq pulled pork. BORING!!! This will be a different twist that I think the guests at my house warming will love. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!

    This recipe is a culinary blessing!!! You won’t be disappointed. Making tonight. I even combine beef & pork…fantastic. Had some hot cherry peppers, those work too.
    If you do overnite ???????? just wait for the best ever kitchen aroma in the morning. Make your pulled pork sandwich & throw a fried egg on top.
