Truck died after pulling

While trying to pull a buddy out of the snow my truck died. I had to use the jerk method of going backwards, then forwards, repeated times. The truck got up to about 3000-3500 on one tug then I let off and the rpm's went way down and the truck died Its never done this! It started right back up and never did it again.
Also sometimes when I get on it and then let off it goes way down and almost sounds like it's missing, but comes out of it just fine. Idk if this helps, just thought I'd include it.

mine did it once while i was getting out of a hole i slid in. rpms were up there then i let off. think it has to do something with the turbo and the pressure against it casing it to stall out. atleast thats what i think but i dont know poo
