The Freshman Cook: BBQ Pork Sandwiches w/ Slaw

BBQ Pork sandwiches is THE Halloween meal to me. When I was a little girl, we would have BBQ sandwiches every Halloween. And so, the tradition lives on.  It just so happens that I love BBQ of any kind, so this is one tradition that I love continuing!!

Spray a baking pan with pan spray.

Place a pork loin in the pan. 

Sprinkle with garlic powder.

Fill the pan with water, to cover 1/4 of the pan.

Cover the pan with plastic wrap.

Then cover the plastic wrap with foil.

Cook at 350 degrees until a thermometer placed in

the pork loin reads 145 degrees.

Take out oven and let pork rest for 30 minutes.

To let the meat rest you are allowing the juices to stop flowing.

Cutting into the pork to soon will make the meat dry.

To make the pork sandwiches,

cut thin slices from the pork loin.

A slicer works great for this, or just cut by hand.

Build your sandwich by toasting the bun, then piling on the 

pork, topped with a taste of BBQ sauce.

Add some cole slaw.

We made some back in May. Your BBQ sandwich is done!

Happy Halloween!
