I had never guessed how easy Cole Slaw was to make. We had already started the BBQ Pork in the crock pot and I wanted slaw to go on our sandwiches.
I read quite a few recipes online and decided they were all very close to being the same. I pulled out the head of cabbage from the fridge and chopped off a chunk. You can slice it to your desired thickness, but I put ours through the food processor. We ended up with about 2 cups of shredded cabbage. I grabbed a small carrot and peeled it. I cut the carrot into smaller chunks and pulsed it in the food processor as well.
All in all, we used about 1/4 cup of Hellman's Mayonnaise, Salt and Pepper, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 2 cups of shredded cabbage, 1 small carrot shredded and 1/8 cup of apple cider vinegar.
Voilà! Easy, delicious, homemade slaw! Serve it with some Homemade BBQ Pulled Pork in the Crock Pot and call it a day!

Just an easy, no fail marinade that is in almost any kitchen, Soy sauce and oil (we use olive oil). I had never heard of this until about three years ago. I tried it fearing that I would ruin   my dinner. I usually use about 1/2 cup of each and add in garlic and any seasonings that I'm craving. When I first made this marinade, I expected it to come out tasting like Chinese food but that's far from the case. Today I added a Costal Seasoning Packet from The Tea and Spice Exchange. I have mainly used the soy sauce/olive oil combo on  chicken but today I'm trying it with Pork chops:)

This will marinate for about six hours while I am at work. I am excited to try this new blend of spices!

This is the final product! They came out incredibly moist and tender. This is definitely going on our favorites list!

This is an easy recipe that everyone will rave over!
All you need is a Boston Butt, BBQ Sauce (BBQ sauce recipe coming soon ), a crock pot and time! I like to soak my Boston Butt over night in a ziploc baggie with the BBQ sauce. This isn't necessary but I think it gives the pulled pork a little something extra.
When I start my day, I pull out the crock pot, empty the ziploc into it and set it on low for the day. I try to make the fatty side up, just so when its time to eat it's easier to pull off the strip of fat.
By the time we both get home from work, dinner is ready and the house smells amazing! Estimated cook time on low is about 6 hours. As long as the meat is covered with liquid, the longer it cooks, the better it tastes!  We take as much of the BBQ sauce from the crock pot and simmer it on the stove. If needed, add corn starch to thicken the sauce.
Last week, we made Homemade slaw to serve with the pulled pork sandwiches.
