Slow Cooker BBQ Pulled Pork- Simple, Healthy, Delicious

Between running the kids from here to there (and I know as they get older it will get worse) there are days I really need a personal chef.  Since I can not afford one - enter the magic of the crock pot.  I love being able to throw my meal in the crock pot in the morning and then forget about it.  When we finally have time to eat- magically it is cooked and done.  Ok not magically but it's ready to go and I did not have to spend a long time in the kitchen.
So today I thought I would share a favorite recipe of mine that's simple and uses the crock pot:  This is from the Eating Well Magazine.
