Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 lbs Pork shoulder (boneless)
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tbsp Paprika
- 1 tbsp Garlic powder
- 1 tbsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Cayenne pepper
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 cup Sugar-free barbecue sauce
- 6 Low-carb hamburger buns
- 2 cups Coleslaw mix
- 0.5 cup Sugar-free mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 0.5 tsp Celery seed
Instructions
Begin by preparing the pork shoulder. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper to create a spice rub.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over the pork shoulder, covering all sides.
Place the seasoned pork shoulder into a slow cooker.
Pour the chicken broth into the slow cooker, around the sides of the pork.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours, or until the pork is tender and pulls apart easily.
While the pork is cooking, prepare the coleslaw by mixing the coleslaw mix with sugar-free mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, and celery seed in a large bowl. Mix until well combined. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Once the pork is cooked, remove it from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks.
Stir in the sugar-free barbecue sauce with the pulled pork until well coated. Optionally, return the pork to the slow cooker to warm through.
Assemble the sandwiches by placing a generous portion of pulled pork onto each low-carb hamburger bun, topped with a scoop of coleslaw.
Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful, low-carb pulled pork barbecue sandwiches.
