My husband and I are a huge fan of Thai food and if we can find something to make in our Slow Cooker, it is a win win! On a recent weekend, we found this recipe for Crock Pot Honey Sesame Pulled Pork and knew it was something we had to make. The recipe calls for making the pork and putting it over white rice, but we had recently used Thai noodles with these individual meatloafs and thought they might be good with the pulled pork. We decided a cool cucumber salad on the side would be perfect and not surprisingly found it from the same website.
It was delicious! Wow! It gives our favorite pulled bbq pork a run for its money! We even fought over the leftovers 🙂 I cant wait for us to make it again!
