Pulled Pork Sandwich from Graduate by Hilton Auburn

Ingredients

For the pulled pork:
4-5 pounds pork shoulder (Boston butt)
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional for heat)
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoon olive oil

For the sandwich:
Soft brioche buns or any preferred sandwich rolls
Coleslaw (recipe below)
Barbecue sauce (store-bought or homemade)
Pickles (optional)

For the coleslaw:
1/2 head green cabbage, thinly sliced
1/2 head red cabbage, thinly sliced
2 large carrots, grated
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon honey or sugar
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Prepare the pork: In a small bowl, mix paprika, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, salt, cumin and chili powder.

Rub the spice mixture all over the pork shoulder, ensuring it's evenly coated.

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork shoulder on all sides until browned.

Place the seared pork shoulder in a slow cooker. Pour in the apple cider vinegar and chicken broth.

Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-6 hours, until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.

Make the coleslaw: In a large bowl, combine the sliced green cabbage, red cabbage and grated carrots.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, honey (or sugar), salt and pepper.

Pour the dressing over the cabbage mixture and toss until everything is well-coated. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Assemble the sandwiches: Once the pork is done, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.

Toast the brioche buns lightly.

Pile the pulled pork onto the bottom half of each bun. Drizzle with barbecue sauce.

Add a generous serving of coleslaw on top of the pork.

Top with pickles if desired, then place the top half of the bun on the sandwich.

Serving suggestions:

Serve the sandwiches with a side of extra barbecue sauce and coleslaw.

These sandwiches pair perfectly with crispy potato chips or a simple salad.
