Pulled Pork Sliders
These simple pulled pork sliders are the perfect party food. Pulled pork mixed with a smoky barbecue sauce, piled onto tender slider buns, and topped with crunchy coleslaw.We used rich, tender, buttery brioche buns. King's Hawaiian rolls are also fantastic with pulled pork sliders.
Servings: 12 Sliders
Ingredients
- 12 slider buns Brioche or Hawaiian rolls
- 2 tablespoons butter room temperature
- 4 oz. Dijon mustard
- 24 ounces shredded pulled pork
- 1-½ cup smoky BBQ sauce
- 3 cups coleslaw
- 12 wood sandwich picks
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Split the buns in half and place on the prepared baking sheet. Transfer to the oven and toast to a light golden brown, about 4-5 minutes.
- Remove the buns from the oven, and when cool, spread the bottom half of each bun with butter and spread the top half with Dijon mustard.
- Place the pulled pork in a microwavable bowl or medium saucepan. Add 1 cup of the BBQ sauce and mix until the pork is coated in the sauce. (You will save the extra BBQ sauce for later when you assemble the sliders).
- Heat the pork mixture in the microwave or on the stovetop. Stir frequently to distribute the heat evenly.
- Lay the toasted buns on a workspace. Pile 2 tablespoons of pulled pork on each bun.
- Spoon some of the remaining BBQ sauce on each pile of shredded pork.
- Add 2 or 3 tablespoons of coleslaw to the pork, then cover with the top of the bun. Stick a sandwich pick into each slider to hold it together.
Notes
- A bag of prepared coleslaw can be substituted for homemade slaw.
- Use your favorite BBQ sauce.
- These sliders can be prepared and assembled 1-2 hours in advance, cover with plastic wrap until ready to serve.
- Toasting the bread and adding butter to the bottom bun will help prevent the sliders from getting soggy.
