I am a vegatarian, so I did not taste this. However, I made it for the block party that we had and everyone kept joking that the very best Pork BBQ they ever ate came from the kitchen of a vegatatian! Well done! People loved it! I added peach preserves and added abit of grated ginger and 2 tbls. of soy sauce!

EXCELLENT Pulled pork recipe. The apricot preserves gives it an amazing citrus flavor. The King of Crock recommends trying the same recipe with a combination of chick breast and boneless chicken thigh.
