Sandwich Assembly

Method

Pulled Pork

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    Trim excess fat from the pork shoulder and cut it into large chunks for even cooking.

  2. 2

    Make the Rub

    In a bowl, combine brown sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well.

  3. 3

    Season the Pork

    Rub the spice mixture all over the pork chunks, ensuring they are evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Smoke the Pork

    Soak apple wood chips in water for at least 30 minutes. Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C) and add the soaked wood chips. Place the pork in the smoker and smoke for about 6-8 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 195°F (90°C).

  5. 5

    Pull the Pork

    Once smoked, remove the pork from the smoker and let it rest for 30 minutes. Then, shred the pork using two forks.

  6. 6

    Mix with BBQ Sauce

    Combine the shredded pork with the BBQ sauce in a large bowl until well coated.

Coleslaw

  1. 7

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and carrots.

  2. 8

    Make the Dressing

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

  3. 9

    Mix Slaw

    Pour the dressing over the cabbage and carrots mixture and toss until evenly coated. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Sandwich Assembly

  1. 10

    Toast Brioche Buns

    Lightly toast the brioche buns on a grill or in a toaster.

  2. 11

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Place a generous portion of the pulled pork on the bottom half of the toasted bun, top with coleslaw, and add pickles if desired. Cover with the top half of the bun.

  3. 12

    Serve

    Serve the sandwiches warm with extra BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
