Moist Pulled Pork

This past weekend the in-laws wanted to go camping, so the four of us packed into one car and drove up north to a camp familiar to me and my family. I was in charge of preparing one meal for not only the four of us, but my mom and two sisters who happened to also be there the same weekend. I didn't want to spend too much time preparing dinner - it's camping, who does? I decided to heed my step-mother's advice and do pulled pork in the slow cooker. It was incredibly easy and all the prep work was done by the slow cooker as we were out kayaking, sunbathing, and relaxing for the day. The pulled pork sandwiches turned out to be incredibly moist and a huge hit. My father in-law enjoyed seconds and my twelve year old sister gave me a thumbs up, which is quite a feat for such a picky eater. All-in-all it was the perfect summer meal.
