Slow Cooker Honey Balsamic Pulled Pork Sandwiches Recipe
I knew when I first stumbled across this recipe, I just had to make it! I am a huge vinegar lover, especially balsamic and knew it would make a great sauce. I'm always looking for new slow cooker recipes too. My apartment gets so hot in the summertime and it's always nice not having to use the oven.
This recipe is so easy and so flavorful! I love the sweetness from the honey and brown sugar, and richness from the balsamic. It's even better when you top it off with some yummy homemade coleslaw. The sauce is amazing and I know it would also be good thrown on some chicken and baked in the oven. Use your imagination, this one is a winner!!
