In this video recipe I will show you how to make pulled pork sliders with a delicious Asian style slaw alongside, a perfect recipe for using up pulled pork leftovers.

This video is part of my pulled pork Month so if you have not already seen them check out my perfect oven pulled pork and pulled pork quesadilla for more inspiration.

So we will start by waking our pork back up! Leftovers from the main pork recipe have been stored in the fridge in a sealed container. I’m going to take some of the pork, which for me tastes even better when warmed back up. I hope it is not just me thinking that you know how that is with a chilli etc, when you warm it through the flavours mingle together even more, we are doing the same thing with our pulled pork sliders too so that flavour will be even better baby.

So the pork is going into a small saucepan, add just a little touch of your favourite BBQ sauce to it and mix in, then gradually warm the pulled pork over a low flame coating in the sauce until nice and hot. You could use more BBQ sauce if you like for a more messy sloppy effect, but I wanted mine to act as a sort of glue & also add a little BBQ kick.

Meanwhile make the Asian style slaw, mix together the lime zest & juice with the ginger, chilli and sugar and stir until the sugar dissolves. Then add the rest of slaw ingredients in a mixing bowl so get that all in there one at a time and pour over the dressing. Give it a good mix together to fully coat the dressing on there, keep in the fridge until ready to serve.

So to serve these up, get some small rolls that have been warmed in the oven, fill them with our delicious bbq sauce coated pulled pork, and finally top with the coleslaw. How simple was that!!

I really hope you give these pulled pork sliders a try guys, they were stonking, if you try out any of the pulled pork recipes send me a picture @myvirginkitchen on Twitter or Instagram.
