Heat-and-Eat Pulled Pork Dishes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Trader Joe's Hardwood Smoked Pulled Pork is Sold Fully Cooked

— December 22, 2023 — Lifestyle
Alongside the release of its new Hardwood Smoked Pulled Chicken, Trader Joe's has also unveiled a new Hardwood Smoked Pulled Pork entree.

Trader Joe's Hardwood Smoked Pulled Pork dish is made by a supplier who seasons tender pork with dehydrated garlic, onion powder, sea salt, and white pepper. The pork is then smoked in a small-batch rotisserie smoker, using actual hardwood logs that infuse that distinctive smoky flavor into the meat. After the pork is fully cooked, it's shredded and packaged up for Trader Joe's. This means that all you need to do is pull out the pouch and pop it in the microwave for a few minutes.

Whether you pair it with tortilla shells or a big bowl of rice, Trader Joe's Hardwood Smoked Pulled Pork is a perfect dinnertime option.
