Ingredients

Smoked Pulled Pork Sliders

2-3 pounds pulled pork (leftover or recipe below)
12 or more slider buns or rolls
1-2 cups barbecue sauce
1-2 cups coleslaw
12 slices cheese (cheddar, pepper jack, etc.) optional
12 slices bacon, optional

Pork Rub

1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons dried oregano
¼ cup dark brown sugar, firmly packed
1 tablespoon chili powder
½-1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
2 tablespoons cumin

Pulled Pork

1 whole 8-12-pound pork butt, bone-in and skinless (or pork shoulder)
Salt as needed

Notes

Be careful not to overfill the sandwiches. Add just enough to fit comfortably on the slider buns without being too much.
Balance out the flavors and textures of the slider toppings. A well-balanced slider should have tangy, savory, crunchy, and fresh elements. 😋
If you're serving these for a party, make a toppings bar for your guests. Add the basic slider elements in separate serving bowls, then let guests choose what toppings they want to pile on.
