This melt in your mouth pulled pork has the perfect balance of flavor, sweet, tart, a little tang the best part of this is the balsamic vinegar, it makes the pork so tender then the addition of the sweet brown sugar, garlic, Dijon mustard and ketchup all of these flavors make a different delicious melt in your mouth pulled pork. Then grab your favorite buns and place this pulled pork on the bun and I love it
topped with Cole slaw and you have a great meal. Make some French fries on the side. This is perfect for anyone, even for working people you simply put the pork in the slow cooker in the morning and when you get home you simply make the sauce in about 20-25 minutes and your dinner is done, I always love making this and taking a little out for myself for leftovers for the next day for my lunch. instead of the ordinary barbecue sauce, I like this recipe much more then the regular BBQ sauce that I make, I just love all of the flavors that when they come together yumm..I saw this recipe and when I see balsamic vinegar I am a huge fan, after my recent post about making my own balsamic glaze it became so sweet and I loved it. It became an entire new flavor I never had before.
