Crock Pot Pulled Pork

Since It's so crappy here in NJ I decided to make a crock pot recipe.
I found one HERE but as usual added my own touches

You will need
3lbs Boneless Pork Loin { I leave the fat on until I'm ready to shred}
1 can of chicken stock {I use reduced fat}
1 medium onion slicked very thin
5 squirts of mustard {I use Guldens because it's what we have}
1/2 bottle of Stubbs BBQ sauce {I use Mild but you can use which ever you like}
salt and pepper
2 teaspoons of chopped garlic

Add onions, chicken stock and mustard in crock pot
place pork loin on top of onions and then add the salt and pepper, garlic and BBQ sauce.

that's it Let cook for about 8hrs. At hour 6 or 7 check pork for tenderness. It should be super easy to shred with a fork.  shred the pork and let cook for about another 45 minutes.

Place inside of some yummy rolls.
I'm also making homemade mac n cheese to go along with it. {recipe to follow soon}
