Ingredients

  • 1 cup canned tomato sauce
  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 2 tablespoons, plus 2 teaspoons cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons, plus 2 teaspoons lightly packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 12 ounces raw, lean boneless pork tenderloin, trimmed of excess fat
  • 12 ounces raw, boneless pork shoulder (the leanest piece you can find), trimmed of excess fat
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 cups roughly chopped onion
  • Crushed red pepper, optional
  • Serving suggestion: Light sandwich buns and rinsed deli cole slaw
  • Special equipment: Crock pot

Directions

To make the sauce: Place the tomato sauce, ketchup, cider vinegar, brown sugar, and garlic powder in the crock pot. Stir until mixed. Season both types of pork with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and add to the pot. Top with onion and lightly stir.

Cover and cook until pork is fully cooked, on high for 3 to 4 hours or on low for 7 to 8 hours.

Remove all the pork and place it in a large bowl. Shred each piece using 2 forks: one to hold the pork in place and the other to scrape across the meat and shred it. Return the shredded pork to the crock pot and mix well with the sauce.

If you're serving a group, keep the crock pot on its lowest setting, so the pork stays warm. Season with crushed red pepper, if using. Yum time!

Cook's Note: Alternatively, recipe can be baked in a preheated oven, covered, at 325 degrees F for 3 to 4 hours.

    Hungry Girl is my new favorite. I loved this cheap, easy, lo-cal and delish recipe!! I bought her cookbook 300 under 300 and have been eating 5-6 meals from this book per day. I have been walking about 45 minutes and day also and have lost 5 lbs in one week. I am so excited! I have a hard time connecting with some of the other hosts that make such fattening, hi-cal meals and they are super skinny. I don't have the control that they must have, so Hungry Girl is my kinda chic! Thanks so much!!

    Great recipe! I made it without the onions and it had just the right amount of tang. I will keep this recipe for a great go-to meal.
