Pulled Pork Sliders Recipe

Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pulled Pork

   Mix the brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper in a bowl to create a dry rub. Rub the mixture all over the pork shoulder and let it sit for at least 30 minutes or overnight in the refrigerator.

2. 2

   Smoke the Pork

   Prepare your smoker with hickory wood chips and preheat it to 225°F (107°C). Place the pork shoulder in the smoker and smoke for about 8 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 195°F (90°C).

3. 3

   Make the BBQ Sauce

   In a saucepan, combine ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, honey, hot sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, then set aside.

4. 4

   Make the Coleslaw

   In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage and carrots. In a separate bowl, mix mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and black pepper. Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

5. 5

   Toast the Buns

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Brush the melted butter on the brioche buns and place them on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.

6. 6

   Assemble the Sliders

   Shred the smoked pork and mix with the BBQ sauce. Place a generous amount of pulled pork on the toasted brioche bun, top with coleslaw, and serve immediately.
