The beautiful lovechild of a cuban sandwich and a sloppy Joe. Pork mixed with homemade BBQ sauce, pickles, and brown mustard on toasted buns.

serves/makes:

ready in:
under 30 minutes

ingredients

2 cups chopped cooked pork, such as rib meat
2/3 cup barbecue sauce (see below)
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup brown mustard
1 full pickle
4 hamburger buns

Barbecue Sauce
1/4 cup butter
1 clove garlic
1 cup ketchup
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 cup brown mustard
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons hot sauce
1 splash Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

directions

Heat pork with barbecue sauce and water in a medium saucepan over a medium flame. Cook for about 10 minutes until sauce is thick and reduced and pork is heated through.

Meanwhile toast buns and spread one side of each bun with the mustard. Top one half of each bun with a mound of the pork. Thinly slice pickles and layer on pork then top with the other half of the bun

For Barbecue Sauce: Melt butter over a medium flame in a medium saucepan. Add garlic clove and saute for 2 minutes. Add remaining ingredients and stir to combine. Cover with a lid and cook over a medium low heat for 15 minutes for flavors to combine.
