Pulled Pork Pickle Pizza

Pulled Pork Pickle Pizza

There are so many different ways to make a tasty pizza! We both really enjoy pulled pork. We have also tried pulled pork sandwiches with pickles on top, and love the extra crunch and tang that the pickles add to the sandwich. We decided to combine our love of pizza and pulled pork sandwiches with this pulled pork pickle pizza. The creamy ranch, warm crust, warm and melted cheese, and flavors of the pickles and pork make this dish one to try! The pork is so flavorful and tender. The slow cooker also provides a great option for cooking the pork, if you don't have a smoker, and want a way to cook the pork right in the kitchen. There were leftovers of the pork, after adding the pork to the pizza, which is awesome! The leftovers taste just as great as the day that the pizza is made. It can be re-warmed in the oven or microwave. The leftover pork can also be enjoyed on a sandwich.
