Pulled pork
A kind of pork · also called Shredded pork
About
Pulled pork is shredded slow-cooked barbecue meat that weighs about 5.4 ounces (154 g) per cup.
With a bulk density of about 5.4 ounces per cup (0.65 g/mL), pulled pork is less dense than whole cuts of meat because of air pockets between the shredded fibers. One pound (454 g) of meat takes up nearly 3 US cups (700 mL) of volume. Compared to solid cooked pork, shredded meat occupies about a third more container space. The exact density can vary slightly depending on how finely it is shredded and the amount of sauce mixed in.
From Wikipedia
Pulled pork is an American barbecue dish, more specifically a dish of the Southern United States, based on shredded barbecued pork shoulder. It is typically slow-smoked over wood ; indoor variations use a slow cooker.
