  1. Sounds and looks yummy and deliciousooo Esme. How/ where do you find the time to prepare all these beautiful dishes?

    1. Dear Julie. Please note that I do not prepare all of these dishes. You will see a name at the bottom of each recipe and that’s the FB Recipe group member that made it and submitted it and provided approval for me to share it on the blog with you all.

  2. This sounds so good. My husband loves pork roast. I had a recipe for a slow cooker recipe, but my slow cooker cooks very hot and not slowly. So, this recipe sounds perfect for me to do on the stove top and oven.

    1. Hi Pam, Hope you will enjoy this Easy Pulled Pork Shoulder and that you and your husband will like it. Please let me know what he has to say once done.

    1. Hi there Mariama, Hope you will have a moment to test out the pulled pork. We love it and have made many versions.
