BBQ Pulled Turkey

This recipe is a variation of the classic American dish "Pulled Pork". Pulled pork is usually made with pork shoulder(also known as pork butt) and can be pretty high fat and loads of sugar which is why It is really delicious. It's typically served in a roll and eaten as a sandwich.
This recipe does a pretty great job in recreating this classic dish into a healthier version. It's SUPER easy to make. Just be sure to plan ahead as this cooks for 8 hours in the slow cooker.
