Description
Transform leftover pulled pork into crowd-pleasing sliders with tangy coleslaw and crunchy pickles, baked to perfection in under 20 minutes.
Ingredients
- 3–4 cups leftover pulled pork
- 12 slider buns (mini brioche or potato rolls)
- 1/2 to 1 cup BBQ sauce
- 2 cups coleslaw
- 12 pickle slices
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with foil for easy cleanup.
- Warm the leftover pulled pork in a saucepan over low heat with enough BBQ sauce to keep it moist, about 5–8 minutes.
- Slice the slider buns in half horizontally and lay the bottom halves on the baking sheet.
- Pile warm pulled pork onto each bottom bun.
- Spoon coleslaw on top of the pork and add a pickle slice; gently press each slider.
- Top with the top halves of the buns and brush lightly with melted butter if desired.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes until the buns are slightly toasted and filling is hot. Optionally, broil for 30–60 seconds for extra crispness.
- Serve hot with extra BBQ sauce on the side for dipping.
Notes
For a vegetarian option, substitute pulled jackfruit seasoned with BBQ sauce. Keep assembled sliders separate from wet toppings if storing, as coleslaw can make the buns soggy over time.
