Method

Pulled Pork Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    Season the pork shoulder with salt, black pepper, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Make sure to rub the spices all over the meat.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork

    In a slow cooker, place the seasoned pork shoulder. Add chopped onion, minced garlic, and pour in the water. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shredded.

  3. 3

    Shred the Pork

    Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and let it cool slightly. Use two forks to shred the meat into bite-sized pieces. Stir in the BBQ sauce until well combined.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 4

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Take a hamburger bun and layer it with a generous amount of the pulled pork mixture. Top with coleslaw and add pickle slices as desired.

  2. 5

    Serve

    Place the top half of the bun on the assembled sandwich and serve immediately, with extra BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
