BBQ Pulled Pork and Coleslaw Sandwiches

Say hello to my new favorite sandwich. Reader, BBQ Pulled Pork and Coleslaw Sandwich. BBQ Pulled Pork and Coleslaw Sandwich, reader. *Handshake* You might have to wipe yours now. Cuz this sandwich is all sorts of luscious, juicy, sweet BBQ pork with melty, spicy Pepper Jack cheese, and zesty, tangy coleslaw for a flavor explosion that will send you to the moon. And with so many yummy goodies, ya might need a fork and knife to eat it. Which, of course, makes is extra delicious.

Making these BBQ Pulled Pork and Coleslaw Sandwiches is a cinch. After all, you already have the pork ready because you’re using your leftovers from these Slow Cooker Boneless BBQ Pork Ribs. You just have to throw together the super easy coleslaw. Easy peasy. Then pile the pork on a yummy Kings Hawaiian bun, drizzle it with the BBQ sauce that you made with the pork, and top that amazingness with a slice of Pepper Jack cheese. Pop it in the oven to broil just until the cheese starts to melt and then pile on the zesty coleslaw. If that ain’t love on a bun, I don’t know what is.

Notes

The amount of sandwiches you can make will depend on how much pork you have leftover from the Slow Cooker Boneless BBQ Pork Ribs.

The coleslaw is zesty and quite tangy, which I feel complements the sweetness of the BBQ pork perfectly. However, if you prefer a sweeter coleslaw, you can decrease the cider vinegar to ¼ cup.
