Do you have any foods that particularly remind you of summer? Watermelon and potato salad, burgers and hot dogs are some that come to my mind initially. But when I think about flavors, pineapple is my summer go-to.

I love putting pineapple into drinks like thisThe Painkiller Drinkand Pineapple Mojito, and sweets like thisPina Colada BreadandPineapple Orange Poppyseed Muffins. But what I’ve really been into lately is mixing the sweetness of pineapple into savory dishes.

I’ve been seeing recipes with pineapple everywhere, so I knew I needed to come up with something to satisfy my craving. This Pineapple Pulled Pork popped into my head and man, is it good! It has the perfect balance of savory and sweet, with a little kick from the barbecue sauce.

Notes:

• The internal temperature of the pork should reach 205 degrees F for optimal shredding.

  adding it to the slow cooker.
