Pulled Pork Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Pulled Pork Sandwich Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    Rub the pork shoulder with the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Make sure to coat it evenly.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork

    Place the seasoned pork shoulder into a slow cooker. Pour the apple cider vinegar over the top. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

  3. 3

    Shred the Pork

    Once cooked, remove the pork shoulder from the slow cooker and place it on a cutting board. Use two forks to shred the pork into bite-sized pieces.

  4. 4

    Add BBQ Sauce

    Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker and mix in the BBQ sauce. Stir well to ensure all the pork is coated with the sauce.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Buns

    While the pork absorbs the flavors from the BBQ sauce (about 15 minutes), toast the burger buns lightly on a skillet or grill.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Sandwiches

    Scoop the pulled pork onto the toasted buns. If desired, top with coleslaw for added crunch and flavor.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve the sandwiches warm and enjoy!
