Time 8h30m

Yield 16 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
One 4-pound boneless pork shoulder, trimmed of excess fat
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
3/4 cup chili sauce
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar (if unavailable, substitute light brown sugar)
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups shredded cabbage (about 1/3 head)
2 carrots, grated
16 slider buns or Hawaiian sweet rolls

Steps:

  • For the BBQ pork: Whisk together the smoked paprika, salt, garlic powder and onion powder in a large bowl. Add the pork shoulder and turn to coat.
  • Heat the oil in a large saute pan over low heat and cook the pork, turning occasionally, until all sides are golden, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove the pork to a plate. Combine the onions with the chili sauce, vinegar, brown sugar and 1 cup water in a slow cooker and whisk together. Add the pork shoulder, cover and cook on low until the pork is hot and cooked through, 8 to 10 hours.
  • Remove the pork to a cutting board and set aside. Pour the liquid into a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook over high heat until reduced by half or the sauce is thick, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, shred the pork with 2 forks or chop into pieces. Put back in the slow cooker and top with the reduced sauce, to taste.
  • For the slaw: Whisk together the mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the cabbage and carrots and toss until coated.
  • To serve, place the pulled pork on the bottom buns, top with the slaw, then close the sliders.

Time 3h50m

Yield 24 sliders

Number Of Ingredients 21

2 (12 count) packages of KING'S HAWAIIAN Original Hawaiian Sweet Dinner Rolls
3 1/2 pounds boneless pork shoulder or butt
2 teaspoons seasoned salt
1 teaspoons crushed black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1 1/2 teaspoons cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 cup KING'S HAWAIIAN Smoked Bacon BBQ Sauce
2 cups beef broth
2 bay leaves
10 peppercorn
1/2 head shredded Napa cabbage
1/2 cup drained crushed pineapple
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/4 cup raisins
1/2 cup toasted and chopped macadamia nuts
1 cup shredded red cabbage
1/2 teaspoon crushed black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Mix seasoned salt, pepper, oregano, cumin, and chili powder together in a small bowl. Season pork on all sides with spice mix, cover with 1/2 cup of KING'S HAWAIIAN Smoked Bacon BBQ Sauce and place in medium size pan. Add broth, bay leaves and peppercorns. Broth should cover about 1/2 of pork. Cover with foil and bake 3 1/2 hours at 350°F. In a bowl mix all ingredients for Hawaiian Slaw, set aside. At 3 1/2 hours remove pork and shred. Add remaining KING'S HAWAIIAN Smoked Bacon BBQ Sauce, set aside. Toast KING'S HAWAIIAN Rolls, then build sandwich pork first then slaw.

Tips:

  • For the best pulled pork, use a pork shoulder roast (also known as a pork butt). This cut of meat is well-marbled and will become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly.
  • Sear the pork shoulder roast before braising it. This will help to develop a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid. A good option is a mixture of chicken broth, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, and spices.
  • Cook the pork shoulder roast until it is fall-apart tender. This will usually take 8-10 hours on low or 4-6 hours on high in a slow cooker.
  • When the pork is done, shred it with two forks.
  • While the pork is cooking, make the Hawaiian slaw. This slaw is made with shredded cabbage, carrots, red onion, pineapple, and a tangy dressing.
  • Serve the pulled pork on slider buns with the Hawaiian slaw. You can also add additional toppings, such as barbecue sauce, cheese, or avocado.

Conclusion:

These pulled pork sliders with Hawaiian slaw are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the slaw is refreshing and tangy. This dish is perfect for a party or potluck, and it's sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
