PULLED PORK SANDWICHES



Pulled Pork Sandwiches image

This recipe takes a good deal of time, but it yields a lot of sandwiches, more than enough for a sloppy, spicy dinner party feast. You'll roast a dry-rubbed pork shoulder in the oven until it's pull-apart tender, 3 or 4 hours that you can spend doing other things while your kitchen fills with the aroma of the cooking meat. Then you'll assemble a quick slaw and simmer a tangy barbecue sauce for about 10 minutes before putting it all out on the table with soft rolls. Serve the combination warm, at any time of the year, for a weekend project well worth an afternoon's work.

Time 6h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 28

1 1/2 teaspoons whole coriander seed
1 1/2 teaspoons whole cumin seed
1 1/2 teaspoons black peppercorns
2 1/4 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons dry mustard powder
1 1/2 teaspoons chile powder
3 tablespoons dark brown sugar
3 1/2 pounds boneless pork shoulder
Hamburger or brioche buns, for serving
1 1/2 cups ketchup
1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons molasses
2 garlic cloves, minced or grated
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons sweet or hot paprika
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
Pinch of cayenne
Dash of hot sauce, more to taste
1 small head green cabbage, outer leaves removed, shredded (about 1 1/2 pounds)
1/2 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 large jalapeño, seeded if desired, thinly sliced
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Assemble the spice rub for the pork: In a dry, small skillet over medium-low heat, toast coriander, cumin and peppercorns until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle, grind toasted spices into a fine powder. Transfer to a bowl and mix with salt, mustard powder, chile powder and sugar.
  • If your roast is tied up, untie it. Massage meat generously with spice rub. If you have time, let meat rest for an hour or two at room temperature, or refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
  • Heat oven to 300 degrees. Place pork in a baking pan and roast for 3 to 4 hours or until meat is pull-apart tender and internal temperature reads 200 degrees on a meat thermometer. Let meat cool for at least 30 minutes before pulling it apart and shredding with your hands or two forks. (This works best when the meat is warm but not hot.)
  • Prepare the barbecue sauce: Combine ingredients in a medium pot. Simmer over medium-low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce has deepened in color. Season with more hot sauce if you like. Add two-thirds of the sauce to meat and toss to coat, adding more sauce as needed. (Any leftover sauce will keep for at least 2 weeks in the refrigerator.)
  • Make the slaw: Combine cabbage, onion and jalapeño in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Add dressing to cabbage and toss well.
  • Serve pulled pork with slaw, buns and hot sauce on the side, letting people assemble their own sandwiches.

THE BEST SLOW COOKER BBQ PULLED PORK AND COLESLAW SANDWICHES RECIPE



The BEST Slow Cooker BBQ Pulled Pork and Coleslaw Sandwiches Recipe image

This recipe for Slow Cooker BBQ Pulled Pork sandwiches is SO easy and the crunchy, creamy coleslaw takes it over the top!

Provided by Camille Beckstrand

Categories     Main Course

Time 8h30m

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 Tablespoons paprika
1½ Tablespoons salt
1½ Tablespoons pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dry mustard
4 pound pork shoulder butt roast (boneless or bone in)
1 cup beef broth
18 ounces BBQ Sauce (1 bottle)
12 hamburger buns
5 cups shredded coleslaw mix ((from the produce section))
1 cup shredded purple cabbage
1 cup shredded carrots
1 cup light mayonnaise
¼ cup white vinegar
1 teaspoon celery seed
3 Tablespoons sugar ((more or less depending on how sweet you prefer))
salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Spray slow cooker with a little bit of non-stick cooking spray or olive oil.
  • In a small saucepan, mix together seasonings (paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dry mustard) and rub on the outside of the pork roast. Take a larger roast. Place pork roast in slow cooker.
  • Pour beef broth around the bottom of the slow cooker (don't pour it directly on the roast or it will rinse off all the seasonings).
  • Cook on low heat for 8-10 hours (or high heat for 5-6, but I feel like the pork is more tender if you cook it on low).
  • Shred the meat with 2 forks and pour in a bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce. Mix all together and serve on a bun with coleslaw.
  • To make the coleslaw, combine coleslaw, cabbage and carrots in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, make dressing by combining mayonnaise, vinegar, celery seed, sugar, salt and pepper. Toss dressing into cabbage mixture and let chill until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder or pork butt are the best cuts for pulled pork because they have a lot of connective tissue that breaks down during cooking and makes the meat tender and flavorful.
  • Use a flavorful rub: A good rub will help to add flavor to the pork and create a nice crust. Some popular ingredients for pulled pork rubs include brown sugar, chili powder, 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 in order to break down the connective tissue and make the meat tender. The ideal cooking temperature for pulled pork is between 225 and 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a Dutch oven or slow cooker: A Dutch oven or slow cooker is the best way to cook pulled pork because it allows the meat to cook slowly and evenly. If you don't have a Dutch oven or slow cooker, you can also cook pulled pork in a roasting pan in the oven.
  • Add liquid to the pot: Adding liquid to the pot will help to keep the pork moist and prevent it from drying out. Some popular liquids for pulled pork include apple cider vinegar, chicken broth, or beer.
  • Shred the pork: Once the pork is cooked, it should be shredded using two forks. Shredding the pork will help to make it easier to eat and will also help to distribute the flavor of the rub throughout the meat.
  • Serve the pulled pork on buns or sandwiches: Pulled pork is traditionally served on buns or sandwiches. However, it can also be served over rice, pasta, or potatoes. Pulled pork can also be used as a filling for tacos, burritos, or enchiladas.

Conclusion:

Pulled pork is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great meal for parties or potlucks because it can be made ahead of time and reheated when you are ready to serve it. Pulled pork can also be frozen for later use. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make pulled pork at home that is just as good as what you would get from a restaurant. So next time you are looking for a delicious and easy meal, give pulled pork a try.
