Crock Pot Cuban Pork Sandwiches with Cilantro Mayonnaise

I have a confession to make…..I bought a triple slow cooker during a Black Friday sale a couple of years ago and I have never used it. I use our large crock pot all the time but was never really sure what to make in the triple slow cooker. That all changed this week with the arrival of the Triple Slow Cooker Entertaining Cookbook! I am so excited to start sharing amazing recipes from this cookbook. The first recipe I made was these amazing Crock Pot Cuban Pork Sandwiches with Cilantro Mayonnaise.

These are so easy to make and taste like you slaved over the stove for hours! When in fact you maybe spent 10 minutes total to whip up an amazing Crock Pot Cuban Pork Sandwiches with Cilantro Mayonnaise!

These Crock Pot Cuban Pork Sandwiches turned out amazing. The pork shredded so easily after being in the crock pot all day. The left overs tasted great also. John has been enjoying these for lunch all week and said they are just as good as day one.
