Simple Crockpot Pulled PorkHi, folks!

As the name implies this is a recipe for a Simple Crock Pot Pulled Pork. We had the grand kids this weekend, and that usually means that long drawn out BBQing is out, and simple and quick meals are in. That’s what this is.  I put it on around 11 am, and it was ready at 6 pm. It took about 30 minutes to setup and the hard part was smelling it cook for the afternoon.

Michelle and I live in a smallish town and shop at the big named grocery stores for the most part.  Some of Michelle’s friends here have been talking about the small old style grocery store here in town having great prices on their meats, so on a lark we decided to stop in and see what was what.  It was a real treat to go in and it made me think of the old A&P or Winn Dixie stores my parents would shop in. It even smelled the same. The prices were as good as they said they were, so we picked up around 7 lbs of country style pork ribs for this endeavor.

Since we had the grand kids and one of them was rather puny from having a stomach bug for most of the week, I decided that instead of spicing them up as per my usual manner to make these plain and good.  So, if your ready to go, I am going to get started.

So, this is that simple.  I used a store bought BBQ sauce and baked up some Tater Tot’s, so the boys were pleased.

Give it a shot if you have time.

See you next week.
