Ingredients

• 2 lbs Pork shoulder (boneless)
• 2 tsp Salt
• 1 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Paprika (smoked)
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 2 tbsp Brown sugar
• 1 cup Barbecue sauce (your favorite)
• 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
• 6 pieces Bread rolls (brioche or sandwich buns)
• 2 cups Green cabbage (shredded)
• 1 medium Carrot (grated)
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 1 tbsp White vinegar

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) or set your slow cooker to the low setting.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together salt, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, and brown sugar to create a dry rub.

Step 3

Pat the pork shoulder dry using paper towels and rub the seasoning mixture all over the meat.

Step 4

Place the pork shoulder in a roasting pan or the slow cooker. If using an oven, cover the pan tightly with foil.

Step 5

Cook for 4–5 hours in the oven or 6–8 hours in the slow cooker, until the meat is fork-tender and easily shredded.

Step 6

Meanwhile, prepare the slaw. In a large bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, white vinegar, and a pinch of salt and pepper.

Step 7

Add the shredded cabbage and grated carrot to the bowl, mixing until evenly coated. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

Step 8

Once the pork is cooked, remove it from heat and let it rest for 15 minutes. Shred the pork using two forks, discarding any excess fat.

Step 9

In a saucepan, heat the barbecue sauce and apple cider vinegar over low heat. Stir in the shredded pork, coating it evenly with the sauce.

Step 10

Toast the bread rolls lightly in the oven or on a grill for added texture.

Step 11

To assemble, place a generous portion of pulled pork on the bottom half of a roll, layer it with a scoop of prepared slaw, and top it with the other half of the roll.

Step 12

Serve immediately and enjoy your Wolfpack Pork Sandwich!
