This keto crockpot brown sugar pulled pork is incredibly juicy, tender, and flavorful! It will be a huge hit every time you serve it!
I love making pulled pork, and this keto crockpot brown sugar pulled pork is one of our family favorites! This delicious dish takes just 10 minutes of prep time, then your crockpot does the rest. This dish also reheats well, so it’s perfect for easy leftovers.
Let’s talk about our ingredients!
This pulled pork contains just 5 ingredients, but is an incredibly flavorful dish! I usually use a bone-in pork shoulder roast to make pulled pork; but I found a great deal on boneless pork shoulder roast and that’s what I used for my pulled pork. Either works great for this dish. I don’t trim any of the fat from my roast until after it cooks, as the fat adds amazing flavor. To our roast, we add an awesome sauce which combines keto brown sugar, tamari, onion powder, and garlic powder. I used reduced sodium tamari, but you can use regular if you’d like. Tamari is simply gluten free soy sauce, but I still recommend reading the label to ensure that it’s gluten free. I used onion and garlic powder to make my pulled pork, but you could substitute with some diced onions and some minced garlic if you’d prefer.
Do you have any tips for making this keto crockpot brown sugar pulled pork?
This is an easy dish to make, but there are a few things you can do to ensure yours comes out perfectly every time. You’ll want to first add your roast to the crockpot, fat side up. Then, to a small bowl, you’ll add all of the other remaining ingredients and stir or whisk to combine them. You’ll then simply pour the mixture over the roast. You really can’t overcook this roast! You can cook it on low for 8-10 or even 12 hours. If you’re short on time, you can also cook it on high for an hour, then for 8 hours on low. After shredding the pork, I like to add a good amount of the drippings to it. You can add the drippings just as they are, or you can use a fat separator, discard the fat, then add the remaining drippings to your pulled pork.
What are some ways I can serve this keto crockpot brown sugar pulled pork?
You have some great low carb options for serving this pulled pork! I have to tell you it’s great served just as it is! No matter how I make pulled pork, inevitably my husband will want his drizzled with keto barbecue sauce.😊You can make a pulled pork sandwich using keto bread, biscuits, chaffles, or English muffins. It’s also delicious served as a filling for lettuce wraps. You can top your sandwich or wrap with cheese, diced tomatoes, or sliced avocados if you’d like. I love salads and can turn most any meat into a salad. This pulled pork is no exception and I like to serve it atop some iceberg or romaine lettuce with diced green onions and tomatoes, shredded cheese, and any kind of keto dressing or vinaigrette. For sides, you can serve this pulled pork with keto coleslaw or most any low carb salad.
