Newbie with a good butt

Just finished pulling the pork off my smoked butt. All I can say is OUTSTANDING. Now the questions is what is the best way to reheat it for tomorrow lunch? Crock pot? Microwave? Oven?
Thanks in advance

Nice title- great thing about Pulled Pork is that it warms up nicely. I even use the dreaded microwave when in a hurry. You can do stove top, oven, nuker, crock pot, low and slow or fast. It's very forgiving so try a few different ways and see which one you like.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX

I warmed my butt in the microwave today. Be sure to cover it so it won't get too dry.ScooterMid TN. Hangin' in the 'Boro. MIM Judge

I use a slow cooker or stove top, and add a little coke or dr pepper. Reheats very easily.XL BGE - Large BGE - Small BGE - Traeger Lil' Tex Elite - Weber Smokey Joe

If you have a vacuum sealer, you can vacuum seal it and reheat it in hot/boiling water in the bag... a zip lock will work in a pinch... but I've used the microwave even for PP...

yep. That's a great way to do it. We have a sous vide cooker and we use it to warm stuff all the time. It's the most gentle way to do it.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX -
I've never cooked any sous vide... can you do it without a cooker or is it too much trouble to maintain 180ish water...

it would be tough without a very precise stove. It's awesome and I cook at like 125-130. It's cool too- works well with the egg (sear after sous vide)Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX -
I even tried my rice cooker, and it worked fine! It came with a raised, perforated metal plate that keeps the food (they suggest vegetables) over the water in the bottom. It does soften up any bark, but on pork butt I don't mind so much._____________

I've heard that works well as a sous vide, Botch. It's a fun way to cook too.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX -
I warm it in the microwave with a damp paper towel over it.

Thanks for all the help. Used the vacuum sealer and heated it in hot water. Turned out great.
