Pork Marinade

Sandwich Assembly

Method

Pork Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a mixing bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well to form a dry rub.

  2. 2

    Rub the Pork

    Take the pork shoulder and rub the dry marinade mixture all over the meat, ensuring it is well coated. Allow it to marinate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

  3. 3

    Slow Cook the Pork

    In a slow cooker, combine apple cider vinegar and water. Place the marinated pork shoulder in the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours until the pork is tender and can be easily shredded.

  4. 4

    Shred the Pork

    Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and let it rest for 15 minutes. Use two forks to shred the pork into bite-sized pieces.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 5

    Prepare the Coleslaw

    In a large bowl, combine coleslaw mix and mayonnaise. Toss until the coleslaw is evenly coated. Set aside.

  2. 6

    Assemble the Sandwiches

    Take a bun, add a generous amount of pulled pork, top with barbecue sauce, and a scoop of coleslaw. Optionally, add pickles on top.

  3. 7

    Serve

    Serve the assembled pulled pork sandwiches warm and enjoy!
