Hey foodies! My slow cooker pulled pork turned out a bit too watery. Any tricks for thickening it up without sacrificing flavor or texture? Appreciate any advice or hacks you can share!
To thicken up your pulled pork, try reducing the liquid by removing the lid and cooking on high for an extra 30 minutes. You can also stir in some cornstarch or a mashed potato flake slurry; it thickens nicely without altering the flavor. Enjoy that savory goodness!
One trick that works for me is to mash some of the pork with a fork or potato masher. This releases some of the pork fibers into the liquid, and these fibers thicken the sauce.
