Equipment

  • Slow Cooker or Instant Pot
  • Large frying pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Meat thermometer
  • Tongs
  • Cutting board and knives

Ingredients
  

For the Pulled Pork:

  • 3-4 lbs pork shoulder or pork butt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt

For the Sliders:

  • Slider buns
  • Coleslaw store-bought or homemade
  • Pickles optional

Instructions
 

Prepare the Pork:

  • Rub the pork shoulder with smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, black pepper, and salt.
  • Heat olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Sear the pork shoulder on all sides until beautifully browned.

Set Up Your Slow Cooker:

  • Place the chopped onion and minced garlic at the bottom of your slow cooker.
  • Add the seared pork shoulder on top of the onions and garlic.

Add Liquids:

  • Pour the chicken broth and BBQ sauce over the pork shoulder.
  • Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4-5 hours. If using an Instant Pot, cook on the "Meat" setting for about 1 hour.

Shred the Pork:

  • Once the pork is cooked through (use your meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 190-195°F), remove it from the slow cooker.
  • Use two forks to shred the meat. Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker and mix it with the remaining juices and BBQ sauce.

Assemble the Sliders:

  • Slice your slider buns in half.
  • Pile on a generous portion of pulled pork, top with coleslaw, and add pickles if you like.
  • Close with the top bun.

Serve & Enjoy:

  • Serve the sliders hot and enjoy the rich smoky flavors melding perfectly with the tangy BBQ sauce and creamy coleslaw.
