Ah, pulled pork! Make a pot full of pulled pork and you can have dinner for a few days! So simple in a slow cooker. Just add a rub to your pork, place in in the slow cooker with a chopped onion, add a bit of liquid, and let it cook all day. Then you have the meat for your dinner all done. Pulled pork sandwiches, tacos, or just by itself, it’s delish.

Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix all dry spice ingredients.
- Trim pork of some of the fat. It’s helpful to have some fat during cooking, but I find that there is usually a lot that can be trimmed.
- Rub the pork with the seasoning mixture
- Place the chopped onion in the crockpot.
- Add the seasoned pork and pour the broth or water around the sides of the pork
- Cook for about 1 hour on high, then turn down to low and cook for 5 to 7 hours or until tender and falling apart.

I use these keto approved psyllium buns that I make to quell that craving for bread. Also try topping with this yummy low-carb coleslaw.
