52 Reviews of Carolina Style Pulled Pork Sandwich

Melts in your mouth! We cooked it for 18 hours and it was well worth the wait. I think we could have cooked it for less, but it was not over done. We used 6 lbs of pork, so the next time perhaps we will try 4 lbs as there was not enough sauce to my liking. We used a food processor to cut the onions which worked out great. We used the mini rolls and I cut the roll in half lengthwise, added the pulled pork and some cheese and broiled it until the cheese started to bubble and brown - mmmm good!!

    OK, the meat came out tender and perfect BUT the BBQ sauce was not to my liking. I am NOT a fan of mustard and it just tasted like mustard to me. So I dumped that and used Jack Daniels Original BBQ sauce and it was PERFECT. I'll make this again, but just use my own sauce. TASTY!!!

    This is obscenely good. The sauce is absolutely wonderful and the pork came out extremely tender. I will definitely make this again sometime. However, next time, I think I'll make another half batch of the sauce. You just can't get enough!

    Wow! Fantabulous recipe and VERY EASY. I was at first thinking...eeehhh look at ALL the ingredients! BUT NEVER FEAR, they are moslty seasoning. It could not have come together easier or faster. We (Texan family) have never had NC bbq. This was sensational! I had pulled out of the freezer what I thought was a Pork Butt dh had wrapped and marked Butt Roast. Found out when he came home and tasted it that this was actually venison! lol :blush: The sauce was out of this world good. I followed the recipe to a T, but did add twice the jalapenos. We love heat! lol DH took a few lbs and some buns to work and fed 'his people' lol! They RAVED! I had 2 lbs left over after that so I froze them in 1 lb bags. This will be a fabulous FAST supper to rely on when faced with a hectic or busy day! Thanks so much chef! Great recipe!

    You only got 5 stars for this one because they wouldn't let me give you 10! THIS IS THE WORLD'S GREATEST SANDWICH. The amount of mustard in the sauce worried me at first, but once the soy, butter and smoke were added, it all evened out! Instead of adding the black pepper and white pepper to the sauce, I used Spicy Montreal Steak Seasoning, and it was perfect . . . especially served with my own Kicked-Up Jicama Slaw #Kicked-Up Jicama Slaw. Thanks so much for sharing this wonderful recipe.

    This is GOOD!!! I just finished it up and my husband and I snuck a sandwich — I made it for the weekend when my son and his family are coming to visit! I followed the directions exactly — but did double the sauce as a couple of the other reviewers had suggested. We didn't think there was too much vinegar (that had previously been mentioned). I think the next time I make it I will cut back just a little on the peppers — we like things spicy, but this might have had just a little too much "kick" for my husband — although he sure "wolfed" down his sandwich. It's funny how that is such a personal preference thing — I saw where someone was going to try and spice it up even more!!! The flavor is excellent. The meat is not dry at all — but so nice and tender. It was a snap to shred it. I do have just one question — I didn't see the chopped jalapeno peppers listed in the directions — so I just put them in with the rest of the ingredients listed under the "Pulled Pork". I couldn't see any place else where they would fit in. Thank you for sharing this excellent recipe.

    I don't care much for sauces, so I didn't make the sauce. The pork itself came out tender, and with a great taste (didn't need the sauce). Served it on some potato buns and it went fast! Thanks for sharing.

    I made this with chicken breasts and cooked on low in the crockpot for 6 hours. Otherwise, I followed the recipe. My BF loved this. I put on homemade rolls and made Kittencal's creamy coleslaw. What a delicious meal!
