Mastering The Art Of Smoked Pulled Pork

This pork is truly one of the best you’ll ever, EVER eat! It’s smoked to perfection and one we never get tired of.

However, if you don’t have a Yoder Smokers YS640, never fear. You can use my other Instant Pot pulled pork recipe.

The Toppings

This slaw is a must on it. It pairs so perfectly with the pork. And that Apple Sauce BBQ Sauce is next level! Seriously if you’ve never made BBQ sauce with Apple Sauce then you, my friend, are sorely missing out on something truly incredible! We’re talking old-school recipe delicious!

Assemble The Sandwich

So this is a debatable subject – toasted buns or not. I’m not a fan of toasted buns for my pulled pork sammi but you can absolutely do so. However, I feel THE BEST buns are either brioche or pretzel buns!

To your bun, add a generous portion of perfectly smoked pulled pork.
Next, drizzle on some warm BBQ sauce followed by a heaping spoonful of the cole slaw. Top with the bun and enjoy!

Now it can be questioned if you should put pickles and or cheese on your sandwich. Honestly, that’s totally your call. I prefer mine without cheese but with tons of pickles on the side. I almost treat the pickles like potato chips (which are a must too but I didn’t have any while I was shooting this).

Picture Perfect Pulled Pork

Seriously, that’s a sexy sandwich right there. I was so incredibly proud of how these photos turned out. I’m not a photographer but given the business I’m in, I had to learn fast how to use a DLSR, shoot everything in manual mode, AND teach myself several different editing software.

Don’t even get me started on videos either! I’m still using my phones for that as honestly, I just don’t have the (or desire) to learn another software suite. So that’s something I’ve passed on to Mr. Fantabulous to learn and take the lead on.

What To Serve With Pulled Pork Sandwiches

So I’ve listed pickles and chips but seriously, depending on the occasion or time of the year, you can serve a ton of different things.

Recipe Substitutions and Additions

So this is where you can truly make it your own! Play around with your BBQ sauces or even your slaws!

BBQ sauce – switch up the sauce with one of these to choose from
Honey Mustard Slaw – if you go with a mustard BBQ sauce, go with this honey mustard cole slaw
Veggies – add jalapenos or banana pepper rings for some heat, caramelized onions for some sweetness, or shaved radishes for some crunch
Chips – yes, add rippled chips ON THE SANDWICH
Pittsburgh-Style – add crispy french fries or tater tots to the sandwich (put them between the BBQ sauce and the cole slaw
