Keto pulled pork made in the slow cooker

Print Recipe

Super easy and tender keto pulled pork. Slowly cooked in the crockpot, bursting with flavor and super tender and juicy. 

Ingredients

Scale

  • 6 pounds pork neck (or pork shoulder)

  • 6 cups beef stock /veggie stock (low sodium) 

  • 4 garlic cloves

  • 2 bay leaves

  • 1 tablespoon cilantro seeds

  • ½ teaspoon black peppercorns

  • 2 tablespoons oregano

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon onion powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt 

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika powder

  • 1 teaspoon chili powder (optional)

Seasoning for the cooked meat: 

  • 1 cup of the remaining stock with the spices

  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon salt 

  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika powder

  • 1 bunch of fresh cilantro or parsley for garnish. 

Instructions

  1. Put the pork neck piece inside the slow cooker. 

  2. Add the stock. 

  3. Make a cut into the garlic cloves and add them to the slow cooker. 

  4. Add the rest of the spices and mix well. 

  5. Close the lid and cook. 6 hours on low or 4 on high. 

  6. Once cooked, remove the pork neck piece from the slow cooker pot and transfer it into an oven tray or big enough container. 

  7. Shred the meat using two forks. 

  8. Once all shredded season with the stock and spices. 

Notes

It can be served inside of burger buns (using keto bread), sandwiches or alongside any keto friendly side dishes. 

It can be stored for up to 7 days in sealed container in the fridge or freeze once portioned inside Ziplock bags for up to 3 months. 

You can use either pork neck or pork shoulder, but I highly recommend using pork neck since it’s way fattier, resulting in a juicier and more tender meat.
