Pickles & Creole Mayo

For Assembly

Method

Roasted Pork

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).

  2. 2

    Season the Pork

    In a small bowl, mix garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Rub the mixture all over the pork shoulder.

  3. 3

    Roast the Pork

    Place the pork in a roasting pan and drizzle with olive oil. Pour apple cider vinegar into the bottom of the pan. Cover with foil and roast for about 4 hours, or until the pork is tender and shreds easily.

  4. 4

    Shred the Pork

    Remove from the oven, let it rest for 15 minutes, then shred the pork using two forks.

Tangy Slaw

  1. 5

    Mix the Slaw Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, and sliced red onion.

  2. 6

    Prepare the Dressing

    In a separate bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper.

  3. 7

    Combine Slaw and Dressing

    Pour the dressing over the slaw mixture and toss well to combine. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator to let the flavors meld.

Pickles & Creole Mayo

  1. 8

    Make the Creole Mayo

    In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, creole mustard, lemon juice, and hot sauce. Mix until smooth and set aside.

For Assembly

  1. 9

    Assemble the Po-Boys

    Slice the French rolls lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Fill each roll generously with shredded pork, top with tangy slaw, dill pickles, and a dollop of creole mayo.
