Slow-Cooker Pork Sandwiches Recipe

I’m always on the lookout for crock pot recipes to make on busy nights.  I tutor and some nights I get home right around dinner time.  I like to find recipes I can make earlier in the day that are ready to serve when I get home.  Tonight, we had Slow-Cooker Pork Sandwiches.

I have a subscription to Real Simple Magazine.  I love flipping through my issue each month.  In the December issue, there was a recipe for Slow-Cooker Pork Sandwiches With Parsley and Pickles. I finally got around to trying it out tonight. It was a hit! There was little preparation time. The pork was juicy and tender.
