Suggestions on how to make canned pulled pork taste better?

[Independent voter]

Okay, so you can buy these cans of Swanson's Pulled Pork in Barbeque Sauce 24oz from Walmart for like $3.33. It makes for a good lunch when you don't want to cook from scratch. The thing is like a lot of canned food it's a little bland. Any suggestions for making it taste better?

Hot sauce. Or really strong mustard.
You can basically eat anything with eat.

However you would anyways heat this pork won't you?
You'll spend pretty the same time that you would if you just roast yourself a proper piece of meat.

Hit that shiz with whatever you can find. Mustard can be boss, or drop some hot sauce! Tabasco brand chipotle saaaauce! And don't forget pickles! Or maybe some shredded cabbage!

Um. Yeah. Or make your own pulled pork. It's easy and cheap. Just need a slow cooker for basic simple.;

With pulled pork, you are trying to balance sweet, savory/spicy. Whatever it is lacking, just add more of it.

Sweet- add brown sugar
Savory- pepper or a small amount of mustard
Spicy- cayenne pepper

Go with all the things: Sweet, Sour, Savory, Salty, Spicy, Texture, Temperature, Appearance. At least those are what I consider when I'm coming up with recipe ideas. Oh yeah, I forgot Price. Never forget price.

We're dealing with canned pulled pork. I don't have high hopes for it.

Basically anything canned is going to taste bad. So your answer is cover it up with something strong, like hot sauce which has already been mentioned. Just avoid what I tend to do and over salt things.

Come on man! Let's do some surgery on it... I'd at least try trow it on a flat top some bbq sauce to get it hot and try for some browning, toast a bun, then assemble it with some pickled cabbage. Yeah. It's on the Value Menu, please pull up to the second window.

That sounds disgusting, I'm sorry.

You don't have a slow cooker?

Now, if it were me, I would go with a sweet heat barbecue sauce, and make sure to add cayenne pepper and black pepper. Add mustard if it needs tank. If it's got plenty of tank, then just add some brown sugar. And whatever you do... throw any vinegar away, get that shit out of the kitchen.

You will either be a pro at biology and chemical or you will never know the mushroom you would love...

Add some salt and pepper. Hot sauce. Assuming it's like canned tuna or chicken, prep just like you would cannes tuna or chicken. Grab some crackers, decent eating I guess. Never heard of pulled pork in a can.

Why the vinegar hate!? There's some in most BBQ sauces, all prepared mustard, pickles of any kind, vinaigrettes ....

It's a god damn brilliant thing.

I'm shocked.

I live with a woman who uses too much of that shit. Personally, I'm sick of it. It tastes fine in moderation, but gets used far too much in sauces.

[IIamaKing]

Yeh, dont eat it. Go to Dickeys.

Yeah I can understand that. An ex-roommate would put either ranch or tabasco on everything. Usually both.

Throw the can away, spend an extra dollar on real meat.
