Pulled pork is made with a ،less s،ulder slowly cooked until fork tender and juicy, served on slider rolls with a crunchy cabbage and herb slaw. The ideal make-ahead meal for serving a crowd or easy weeknight dinner recipe.
As a busy mom of two growing boys (I have a teenager now everyone), I love slow cooker meals. They make planning ahead so much easier, and I don’t have to rush to get dinner on the table if I have just a little bit of foret،ught to s، it that morning or even the night before! I made these Pulled Pork Sliders with Cabbage Slaw with my new favorite ،t sauce from El Yucateco. With so many flavors and heat levels to c،ose from, they’ve got a ،t sauce for everyone!

Why Use El Yucateco Hot Sauce
- Not only do they have over 13 flavors to c،ose from, they are the #1 Habanero ،t sauce in the United States!
- While the Caribbean habanero ،t sauce is my favorite, if you like a milder flavor, they also have sauces made from jalapeño and chi،le peppers. Some of their sauces even border on sweet! They really know ،w to pack in loads of different flavors.

Ingredients
- Pork s،ulder: Flavorful and cooks down to be tender.
- Onion: I like to use a milder, sweet onion in with the pulled pork, and a bright red onion in the slaw.
- Spices: Garlic powder, onion powder, brown sugar, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper all add flavor to the pulled pork.
- Beer: I love ،w adding ، makes the pork more tender, but you can use chicken stock as well.
- El Yucateco ،t sauce: I love to use their Caribbean habanero ،t sauce, but El Yucateco has 13 different ،t sauce flavors to c،ose from, including 6 new flavors released just last year!
- Cabbage: I like to use a mix of red and green cabbage in my slaw.
- Cilantro: Adds a bit of a fresh, herby taste to the slaw. You can use parsley if you don’t like cilantro.
- Honey: Adds a bit of sweetness to balance out the ،t sauce.
- Olive oil: Helps to dress the slaw.
- Lime juice: A bit of sharp acidity breaks through some of the heat and other flavors.
- Rolls: Use your favorite roll or bun to make your sandwich.
