Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 kg pork shoulder
  • 1 tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 12 Hawaiian rolls
  • 1 cup coleslaw mix
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions
 

Season the pork

  • Pat the pork shoulder dry. Mix salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder and onion powder. Rub the seasoning all over the meat. Make sure every side is coated well.

Cook the pork

  • Place the pork in a slow cooker. Add chicken broth and half of the barbecue sauce. Cover and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours until tender.

Shred the meat

  • Remove the cooked pork from the slow cooker. Use two forks to shred it into small pieces. Add the remaining barbecue sauce and mix well.

Prepare the coleslaw

  • In a bowl, mix coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, vinegar and sugar. Stir well until combined. This adds a fresh and crunchy layer to the sliders.

Assemble the sliders

  • Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Slice Hawaiian rolls in half. Place the bottom layer in a baking dish. Add pulled pork, then coleslaw, then top buns.

Bake and serve

  • Brush melted butter on top of buns. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until warm and slightly golden. Serve immediately while hot and fresh.

Notes

  • Use pork shoulder for best flavor and tenderness.
  • Cook slowly for soft and juicy meat.
  • Do not skip the coleslaw for balance.
  • Add cheese if you want extra richness.
  • Toast the buns lightly for better texture.
  • Adjust barbecue sauce to your taste.
