Whole30 Slow Cooked Bbq Pulled Pork With Coleslaw Recipes

WHOLE30 SLOW COOKED BBQ PULLED PORK WITH COLESLAW

Steps:

• To make the pulled pork: In a medium bowl, whisk together all the spices. Set aside.
• Rub spice mixture evenly over the pork, store any extra spice rub in an airtight container with the rest of your spices. You can cook the pork right away but ideally marinate the pork in the spice rub for 4 hours or even overnight.
• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Place a long piece of foil across a half sheet tray so there is some hanging off both sides. Then place another long piece of foil going in the opposite direction. Place the seasoned pork, fat side up, in the center of the foil and toss to coat with the olive oil. Tightly cover the pork with the foil, keeping the foil seam on the top. Place in the oven and cook for 3 hours. Remove the pork from the oven and carefully open the foil pack so the top is exposed but so that the foil is still catching the juices released from the pork. Place the pork back in the oven and cook an additional 2 ½ - 3 hours or until the pork is tender and easily shreds with a fork. Remove from the oven and turn on the broiler.
• To make the BBQ sauce: While the pork is cooking make the BBQ sauce. Drain the dates and chiles from the warm water once they have softened. Add chilies to the sauce based on your spice preference. Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend on high until the sauce is smooth and shiny. Season with salt and remove to an airtight container and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• To make the Whole30 mayo: Place the yolks, mustard, lemon juice and garlic in a blender and blend on high until smooth and combined. With the blender running slowly stream in the oil until the mixture emulsifies and forms mayonnaise. Season to taste with salt. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. You can use it right away but I like to serve it the next day after the garlic has flavored the mayo.
• To make the coleslaw: In a large bowl combine the cabbages, fennel, apple, red onion, parsley, lemon juice and vinegar. Fold in enough mayo to lighten the coleslaw in color and give a creamy taste, up to a ¼ cup. Taste and season with salt. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• To serve: Top the pork with 1/2 cup of BBQ sauce and place under the broiler for 4-5 minutes or until the sauce has caramelized. Remove from the oven and shred the pork into bite sized pieces. Toss the pork with more of the BBQ sauce. Serve the remaining BBQ sauce on the side with the coleslaw.
• All leftovers hold well in the refrigerator for up two days except for the BBQ sauce which will hold in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

THE BEST SLOW COOKER BBQ PULLED PORK AND COLESLAW SANDWICHES RECIPE

Steps:

• Spray slow cooker with a little bit of non-stick cooking spray or olive oil.
• In a small saucepan, mix together seasonings (paprika, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and dry mustard) and rub on the outside of the pork roast. Take a larger 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.

SLOW COOKER PULLED BBQ PORK ROAST & COLESLAW

Steps:

• PREPARE BARBECUE PULLED PORK ROAST.
• Trim excess fat from the pork (Butt, Roast, or Shoulder). Leave some for flavor, but trimming now will reduce what you will need to skim off at the end of cooking.
• Place the Mojito Lime Seasoning, chili powder, black pepper, cumin, coriander, paprika, salt, and 2 minced garlic cloves in a large bowl. Add oil to make a paste. Rub all over the pork, working the spice mixture into the meat well.
• Wrap the pork tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
• Transfer the pork to a roasting pan with a rack. Allow to stand at room temperature while the oven heats to 400⁰ (F). Cook for 20 minutes. (preferably with convection) Transfer to a slow cooker.
• Blend the Kraft Original Thick & Spicy BBQ Sauce, Open Pit Original BBQ Sauce, dark brown sugar, mustard, A-1, Worcestershire, remaining garlic, and onion (reserve 2 TBS onion for the coleslaw.) Pour the mixture over the pork and add water to cover. Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or until *very* tender.
• When pork is tender, skim off any fat. Transfer the pork to a large bowl. Use two forks to separate the meat into long strands (large serving forks work great.).
• Remove 2 cups of cooking juices to a saucepan. Whisk in the cornstarch and bring to a boil. Cook, stirring, until thickened and bubbling. Set aside.
• Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker; stir to combine with the remaining cooking juices.
• PREPARE COLESLAW.
• Core and shred cabbage into longish strands. Shred the carrot. Finely dice the onion.
• Combine the shredded cabbage, carrot, and onion in a large bowl.
• In a separate medium bowl, Whisk the salad dressings, Sweet 'N Low® (or sugar), vinegar, wasabi, salt, and celery seeds and blend thoroughly.
• Pour dressing mixture over shredded cabbage, carrot, and onion. Mix and toss to coat. Chill at least 2 hours before serving.
• Serve the pulled pork on soft rolls and drizzle with thickened sauce mixture to taste. Top with coleslaw or serve on the side.
