Notes
We served our pulled pork sandwiches with Homemade Air Fryer Potato Chips and Copycat Cracker Barrel Fried Apples. It was an amazing meal!
If you can't find the fire roasted tomatoes, you should add one tablespoon of BBQ seasoning to the sauce in the blender. Otherwise, you may find that the flavor of the finished pulled pork is a little flat.
