I've used both pork loin and pork tenderloin to make pulled pork. The
"pulled" part simply refers to the method of disassembling the cooked
meat vs. the way it's cooked.

Even when I slow smoke pork butt or shoulder I de-grease the meat as
much as possible before serving or freezing it, so while the cooking
method differs, the end results are about the same. Use sauces when the
meat is served to add moisture.
