Coleslaw Recipe For Pulled Pork
This recipe for Slow Cooker BBQ Pulled Pork sandwiches is SO easy and the crunchy, creamy coleslaw takes it over the top!
Serving12 Servings
Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoon paprika
- 1 ½ Tablespoon salt
- 1 ½ Tablespoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard
- 4 pound pork shoulder butt roast, boneless or bone in
- 1 cup beef broth
- 18 ounces BBQ Sauce, 1 bottle
- 12 hamburger buns
Coleslaw
- 5 cups shredded coleslaw mix, (from the produce section)
- 1 cup shredded purple cabbage
- 1 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cup light mayonnaise
- ¼ cup white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon celery seed
- 3 Tablespoon sugar, (more or less depending on how sweet you prefer)
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Spray slow cooker with a little bit of non-stick cooking spray or olive oil.
- In a small bowl, mix together seasonings (paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dry mustard) and rub on the outside of the pork roast. Place pork roast in slow cooker.
- Pour beef broth around the bottom of the slow cooker (don't pour it directly on the roast or it will rinse off all the seasonings).
- Cook on low heat for 8-10 hours (or high heat for 5-6, but I feel like the pork is more tender if you cook it on low).
- Shred the meat with 2 forks and pour in a bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce. Mix all together and serve on a bun with coleslaw.
- To make the coleslaw, combine coleslaw, cabbage and carrots in a large bowl. In a smaller bowl, make dressing by combining mayonnaise, vinegar, celery seed, sugar, salt and pepper. Toss dressing into cabbage mixture and let chill until ready to serve.
Notes
Any BBQ sauce will work in this recipe. I really like Sweet Baby Ray’s Original BBQ sauce, but my husband prefers Famous Dave’s Devil’s Spit (it’s a little too hot for me and the kids, so I make him add it to his individual portion).
