Pulled Pork Sandwich Recipe

To begin, start by marinating a pork shoulder overnight in a mixture of brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt. The longer it marinates, the more flavorful and tender the pork will be once it's cooked.

Next, slow-cook the pork in a crockpot or Dutch oven for several hours until it falls apart easily with a fork. The key to achieving that perfect, melt-in-your-mouth texture is to cook the pork low and slow, allowing the flavors to develop and the meat to become incredibly tender.

While the pork is cooking, prepare a tangy and sweet barbecue sauce by combining ketchup, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and a hint of mustard. This sauce will add the perfect balance of flavors to the pulled pork and elevate the overall taste of the sandwich.

Once the pork is tender and ready to be pulled, shred it using two forks until it's perfectly combined with the barbecue sauce. Pile the pulled pork high on a toasted brioche bun and top it off with a generous helping of crunchy coleslaw for an added layer of crunch and freshness.

Serve the pulled pork sandwich with a side of crispy fries or a refreshing salad for a complete and satisfying meal. Trust me, this recipe will have your guests coming back for seconds and asking for the secret to your mouth-watering pulled pork sandwich. It's a true crowd-pleaser and a recipe that will undoubtedly become a staple in your culinary repertoire.
