On a sandwich roll? I want to eat 20 of them in a row! This is my new favorite flavor for pork that I will be obsessed with for the foreseeable future.

You know, because I really wanted to make sure we had at least enough leftovers for my lunch!

Overhead view of Slow Cooker Honey Mustard Pulled Pork on bun with jalapenos on white plateI used a three pound bone-in pork shoulder roast and the flavor of the roast itself can’t be beat. Once it cooks all day it’s so easy just to pull it out and shred the pork and the bone just falls out. Lots of juices from the meat will combine with the sauce that we will make and pour over it for the most perfect flavor ever.

Whisk together some mayo, mustard, honey, lemon juice, bbq sauce and that’s pretty much it. You could even use a prepared honey mustard sauce if that’s what you have on hand.

Slow Cooker Honey Mustard Pulled PorkI finished this off with a quick trip under the broiler in my oven for about 6 minutes to give it the crispy edges. Not mandatory but if you have a few minutes I suggest it. I lined my cookie sheet with foil so that there was really no additional clean up.

  1. This looks delicious!! Can’t wait to try it!! Question though: If substituting prepared honey mustard, how much and does that replace all other ingredients, except for the BBQ sauce?

    1. I haven’t tried it so I can’t speak to the results at all. There are several other ingredients in many of them and lots of different kinds of honey mustard sauces so I’m not sure how well they hold up to cooking all day.
