Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Combine the fennel, rosemary, oregano, garlic salt, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and a generous amount of pepper in a small bowl.
- Slice the pork tenderloins in half crosswise and rub evenly with the spice mixture. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over a medium-high heat. Add the pork and sear, turning, until golden brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Place the skillet in the oven and bake until the pork is cooked through and a thermometer inserted in the middle registers 140 degrees F, 18 to 20 minutes.
- To toast the ciabatta rolls, place a dry skillet on a medium heat until it is hot, about 5 minutes. Slice the rolls in half and place the rolls in the skillet cut-side down until they are toasted how you like them, 15 to 30 seconds. Set aside.
- Remove the pork to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing to your desired thickness.
- Grate the garlic clove and combine it with the mayonnaise and lemon zest in a small bowl. Season with black pepper.
- Add the arugula to a bowl, then drizzle over the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil and the balsamic vinegar and toss to combine.
- Generously spread the garlic mayonnaise on the tops and bottoms of the rolls. Place some pork slices on the bottom halves, then add slices of roasted red pepper and a generous amount of the arugula. Place the other halves of the rolls on top and serve.
SLOW COOKER BBQ PULLED PORK
If you've spent any time on Pinterest or food blogs, you've likely come across a recipe for three-ingredient barbecue pulled pork that can be made in the slow cooker. Methods and ingredients vary, but the recipe almost always calls for boneless pork shoulder, some sort of dark cola (usually Dr Pepper or root beer) and barbecue sauce. Dubious? We were too, so we asked the members of our NYT Cooking Community Facebook page if anyone had ever made it and if they liked it. We received more than 150 very opinionated responses. Many readers have come up with their own clever twists, like using coffee or beer in place of cola, adding onions or chipotles, rubbing the meat with a spice blend and searing the meat before cooking. We tried cooking it a few different ways and found we liked this adaptation best. It calls for a few more ingredients and an extra step or two, but it's got layers of flavor and it's still mostly fuss-free. (You can find the pressure-cooker version of this recipe here.)

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the garlic and onion powders, smoked paprika, salt and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork. If you have time, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours or up to overnight. If you don't, no worries; proceed to Step 2.
- Lightly grease the crock of a slow cooker. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Sear the pork until golden brown on all sides, about 2 minutes each side. Add onion, if using, to the slow cooker. Add the pork on top of the onion. Pour soda over the pork and set the slow cooker to low for 6 to 8 hours, until the meat has collapsed and shreds easily.
- Drain most of the liquid from the slow cooker and shred the meat directly in the pot. Add about 1/2 cup of the barbecue sauce and stir to combine. (At this point, if you like crisp bits in your pulled pork, you can spread the shredded pork on a sheet pan and place under a broiler for a couple minutes then return to the slow cooker.) Taste and add more barbecue sauce, hot sauce, salt or pepper, if desired. Serve with soft rolls and extra sauce on the side.

Steps:
- 1. lightly spray crock pot with cooking spray. set the pork into the crock pot and arrange the onion quarters all around it.
- 2. mix the remaining ingredients except the cornstarch together in a bowl and then pour over the pork.
- 3. cook on low for 7-8 hours, 15 minutes before serving, pull out the meat and retain the liquid.

- 5. whisk in the cornstarch over medium heat and bring to a boil.
- 6. stir sauce until slightly thickened. shred meat and serve with sauce over a bun.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder (also known as pork butt) is the best cut for pulled pork because it has a good amount of fat that will render down and keep the meat moist and flavorful.
- Season the pork well: A good rub is essential for adding flavor to pulled pork. Be sure to use a variety of spices, including salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
- Cook the pork low and slow: Pulled pork should be cooked at a low temperature for a long period of time. This will allow the meat to become tender and fall apart easily.
- Use a liquid to keep the pork moist: Adding a little liquid to the slow cooker or roasting pan will help to keep the pork moist and prevent it from drying out.
- Shred the pork before serving: Once the pork is cooked, use two forks to shred it into small pieces. This will make it easier to eat and will help the sauce to coat the meat.
Conclusion:
Parmesan and honey pulled pork sandwiches are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a party or a casual weeknight dinner.
