RANCH HAND SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Spread bacon jam on the bottom half of each deli roll. Then layer on some shredded Pop Pulled Pork and a slice of country ham and pepper jack. Add bread and butter pickles, top with the other half of the roll and wrap in paper.
• Place the onion slices in the bottom of a slow cooker. Sprinkle the pork with the salt, pepper and garlic powder, then place it on top of the onions. Crack open the can of pop and pour it over the whole thing. Add the whole bottle of BBQ sauce and the hot sauce, then add the brown sugar to the liquid and stir.
• Put on the lid, set the slow cooker to high and cook for 6 hours. When it's done, the pork will be dark and weird and wonderful. It'll also be fork-tender. That's when you know it's done.
• Remove the meat from the slow cooker and shred completely. Spoon the fat from the sauce. Return the meat to the slow cooker and keep in the sauce until ready to serve. Divine!

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cook the bacon in a saucepan over medium heat until crisp, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Drain all but 1 to 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease. Add the lager, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard seeds, red pepper flakes and rosemary to the skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer until the mixture becomes a very thick syrup, 25 to 30 minutes.

Transfer the pork to a cutting board and tent with foil to rest, about 5 minutes.
• Finish the bacon jam by stirring the bacon into the reduced beer mixture.
• Toss the arugula with the lemon juice and remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, then transfer to a platter. Slice the tenderloin and shingle it around the arugula. Top with the bacon jam and serve.
