Sometimes I get a major craving for barbeque pulled pork but do not have pork and don't want to wait for 2-3 hours while it cooks! During these times, I cook a pulled "pork" made from jackfruit and it totally satisfies my barbeque craving! This recipe can also be made vegan if you substitute mayo for vegan mayo in the coleslaw.
Ingredients
BBQ Jackfruit
1 yellow or sweet onion
28 oz jackfruit (2 cans)
1 cup barbeque sauce (homemade or BBQ sauce of choice!)
1/2 cup water
salt and pepper
Coleslaw
12 oz coleslaw mix (or shred your own carrots, purple cabbage, and cabbage)
1/4 cup of mayo (or substitute vegan mayo)
2 tsp apple cider vinegar
2 tsp dijon mustard
salt and pepper
Instructions
BBQ Jackfruit
Dice the onion
Cook onions in a frying pan on medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil until the onions are softened and translucent
Rinse and drain the jackfruit and cut off the hard core
Add in the jackfruit, barbeque sauce, water, salt and pepper to the onions and let it simmer for 20 minutes
Using a potato masher, mash the jackfruit until it has a pulled pork appearance
Coleslaw
Place the coleslaw mix (or shredded cabbage and carrots) into a medium sized mixing bowl
Add the mayo, apple cider vinegar, mustard, salt and pepper to the bowl and combine
BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich
Toast your bread (I used brioche buns, buttered and toasted it!)
Add the jackfruit on the bottom
Top with the coleslaw
