Sweet Habanero Pulled Pork Sliders

Pulled pork and Sweet Habanero are a great combination.

These sliders are perfect for dinner but might require some prep work for the pulled pork.

I like to make my pulled pork in a pressure cooker (you know, that pot that cooks instantly!)

You could put the whole thing together in about an hour and a half if you hustle, or make the pork the day ahead.

Ingredients:

  • 2-pound pork shoulder roast or get a 4-pound roast for leftovers (Do this. Street tacos tomorrow?)
  • One package of dinner rolls
  • 4 oz butter, melted
  • Sweet Jeans Sweet Habanero Mustard
  • One cup chicken stock. Boxed from the store is fine. We know. You’re busy!
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder (double the salt, pepper, and cumin if using a 4-pound roast)
  • Two tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions:

  1. Cube the pork roast into about 2-inch pieces. Toss the pork in the salt, pepper, and cumin powder.
  2. Set your pot to sauté, add the oil, and brown the seasoned pork cubes. You might need to do this in a couple of batches.
  3. Once browned, return all of the pork to the pressure cooker pot and add the chicken stock.
  4. Attach the lid and set the pot to pressure cooker high for 20 minutes. Let it coast for about 20 minutes after the pressure cooking is complete.
  5. Release the remaining pressure and remove the lid. Remove the pork to a bowl and shred the pork with a fork (hey that rhymes).
  6. Preheat the oven to 350.
  7. Slice the rolls in half, you know, slider style.
  8. Mix three cups of the pulled pork with ¾ cup of Sweet Jeans Sweet Habanero. Take a little taste and add more Sweet Jeans at your discretion. We trust you.
  9. Place the bottom of the rolls bundle in a greased 9 x 13 ceramic dish. Spread the pork mixture evenly.
  10. Top with the top of the buns.
  11. Melt the butter and mix in two tablespoons of Sweet Jeans Sweet Habanero. Spread that goodness all over the rolls and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
  12. Bake in the oven for 20 minutes, remove the foil and bake for another 8 minutes. Remove and enjoy!
