I'm Not A Gourmet Cook, But I Try...: Crockpot Pulled Pork

Been awhile since I posted a recipe.  Been doing rotations of the same old standards for awhile, but I needed a crockpot meal and wanted to try a new one.  Now, we've done crockpot pulled pork before, but that was not on my diet.  In that one, I just put a pork loin in with 1 cup of BBQ sauce and a BUNCH of cola to immerse the pork loin.  Well, that "bunch of cola" obviously won't work on my diet, so I searched SparkRecipes and found a good one nutrition wise and sounded like it'd be straightforward.

The results were pretty good.  It's nothing special, but it does the trick.  And it was good enough that I found myself trying to snack on little pieces after dinner.  So, if you have tricks to make it even more flavorful, go ahead and spin it up.  But this is a nice healthier option for pulled pork.
