To prepare, simply heat the pulled pork according to package directions. This can often be done in a microwave, on the stovetop in a skillet, or in the oven.

After opening, store any unused portion of the seasoned pulled pork in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It is best to consume leftovers within 3-4 days. Ensure the pork is kept chilled to maintain its freshness and quality. Proper storage helps prevent spoilage and maintains the intended texture and flavor.
