These BBQ pulled pork sandwiches are a delicious and easy meal to throw together to serve a crowd. They feature slow cooked barbecue pulled pork, a crisp and tangy coleslaw and bread and butter pickles.
TIP: The pulled pork cook time depends entirely on size and thickness. The larger and thicker the cut(s) of pork, the longer the cook time. Cutting the pork into smaller, stew-sized pieces will reduce cook time.
