by Scott Groth 13 Comments

You've found a collection of 15 incredible leftover pulled pork recipes. That's right... get those creative pulled pork juices going with these original recipe ideas!

Pulled pork is absolutely delicious. There is just no denying that fact. Here's the thing though... when you make pulled pork it is always difficult to make "just enough" particularly if you are using a pork shoulder.

Well, my suggestion is to never make just enough pulled pork. Always make as much as you can so you'll have leftovers! In my case, I make enough to not only have leftovers but enough to freeze for later.

Yes, pulled pork freezes exceptionally well. If you are going to freeze the pork, make sure that you put some of the braising liquid into the container with the pork so it can stay nice and juicy when it is reheated.

Whether you are using leftover pulled porkor have reheated your frozen stash, you're going to need some great recipes for inspiration. Well, you have found 15 awesome recipes that will put your leftover pulledpork to good use. I hope you enjoy.
