    • 2 Sandwich Rolls
    • 1 Persian Cucumber
    • 2 oz Arugula
    • 3 oz Pickle Chips
    • ¼ cup Barbecue Sauce

    15-Min BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich

    Prepare the ingredients & toast the rolls
    1 Prepare the ingredients & toast the rolls

    Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the rolls. Thinly slice the cucumber into rounds. In a bowl, combine the crispy onions and half the spice blend. In a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the halved rolls. Toast 1 to 2 minutes per side, or until lightly browned. Transfer to a work surface. Cover with foil to keep warm.

    2 Cook the pork

    In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the pulled pork, barbecue sauce (carefully, as the liquid may splatter), remaining spice blend, and 2 tablespoons of water; season with salt and pepper if desired. Cook, stirring frequently and breaking the meat apart with a spoon, 2 to 3 minutes, or until combined, the sauce is slightly thickened, and the pork is heated through. Turn off the heat.
