I got a little single-serving crock pot on Black Friday, so I’m curious what your favorite things to make in one are.

    BBQ pulled pork.

    Brown a pork shoulder, rest it on a bed of onions, and slow cook/ braise it in a sweet marinade. (a can of soda works great).

    (optional) Once the meat is fork tender, shred it, spread it out on a thin layer on a cookie sheet and broil it in the oven to recreate the burned/ dehydrated texture of smoked meat.

    Serve with BBQ sauce and pickles on a warm hamburger bun.

      I have a similar sort of recipe, but instead of the broiler, you can also drain all the liquid, put it back in the slow cooker and set it to high for 1 hour.

      I usually drain the liquid to a small pan and boil it until it becomes much less liquid and more like a sauce, I add it back to the slowcooker after the hour is done.
