Instructions

1. Add all ingredients for the Pork to crockpot or instant pot. Stir to combine spices and sauce.

CROCKPOT: Cook on low for 8 hours.

INSTANT POT: Frozen: Cook for 60 minutes in instant pot with 15 minutes of natural release. If not frozen, cook for 45 minutes with 15 minutes of natural release.

2. Carefully remove meat and place on large plate. Allow to cool a few minutes, then shred with two forks. Add some of the broth from the slow cooker or instant pot to the pork and stir to combine. This will help the pork stay moist.

3. Preheat oven to 350F.

4. Lightly spray a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. Flatten the biscuits and gently stretch the dough to make the biscuits a little larger. Place the biscuit dough inside the well of a muffin tin. Add shredded gouda cheese and pulled pork.

5. Bake in oven for 18-20 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown.

6. Make the apple slaw. In a medium bowl, add all ingredients for slaw. Toss to combine. Add slaw on top of taco cups as well as barbecue sauce, if desired. Enjoy!
