I Love my Crock Pot!

So I bought a pork loin roast at the market, and decided to make some slow-cooked pulled pork using my crock pot. These are two of my favorite things in the whole world - my crock pot and some delicious barbecue pulled pork! What's easier than the crock pot? Set and forget it baby!

And what better to pair a pulled pork sandwich with but some coleslaw. And not any old coleslaw, I got a recipe from my sis for KFC's famous coleslaw. Now I must say I really don't like KFC's food, EXCEPT for their coleslaw! Now I can eat a bucketful of their slaw any day lol. This recipe is amazing, it tastes just like KFC's!
