Pork Sliders Food

TRIPLE PORK SLIDERS

Steps:

• Preheat a flat top grill pan to medium-high heat.
• In a medium bowl, mix the ground pork, sausage, cheese, shallot, garlic, and salt and pepper, to taste. Form the meat mixture into small equal-sized patties.
• Cook the burgers for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove them from the pan and serve on split rolls with a half a slice of bacon, lettuce, tomato and Smoked Paprika Mayonnaise.
• Mix all of the ingredients together in s medium bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving, allowing the flavors to meld. Can be made a day ahead.

BEEF AND GROUND PORK SLIDERS

Steps:

• In a saute pan over high heat, add the butter, onions, white pepper and 1 teaspoon salt, and cook over high heat until the butter has melted. Reduce the heat to medium and finish cooking the onions until slightly browned on the edges, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Mix the beef, pork, remaining 1 teaspoon salt, and black pepper in a bowl. Do not over mix or the burger will be too tightly bound. Portion the meat into 12 (2-ounce) balls, then flatten the balls into patties about 2 1/2 inches round.
• Preheat a grill and grill the burgers for 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.
• Combine the mayonnaise-mustard mixture with the lemon juice and shredded romaine. Top the bottom bun with the dressed lettuce, a burger, some caramelized onions, and cheese of choice. Add the top bun and serve.

PORK SLIDERS

Steps:

• Bring pork to room temperature, approximately two hours. Pre-heat your oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit. In the meantime, cook bacon in a Dutch oven until the bacon is crispy and fat has rendered. Drain bacon on paper towel to remove excess oil and fat. Season pork well with salt and pepper and sear each side until golden, about five minutes per side. In a small bowl, mix together sugar, molasses, ketchup and vinegar. Add the mixture and the bacon to pot with the pork. Add water until it comes up to 3/4 side of the pork. Cover and bring to a simmer. Move to the oven, braising the pork, basting once an hour until the sauce has thickened to a syrup-like consistency, about 6 hours. Rest the pork fo 20 minutes on a rimmed baking dish. Skim fat from the sauce and discard. Using a fork, shred the pork and return it to the pot with the sauce. Serve on the mini brioche buns with pickles.

PULLED PORK SLIDERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. Set the pork on a cutting board and score the fat in a crosshatch pattern, making the cuts about 3/4 inch deep and 1 inch apart. Make the rub: Combine the pimenton, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, brown sugar, celery salt, mustard powder and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a small bowl. Massage it into the meat.
• Place the pork in a roasting pan and pour the beer into the pan. Cover with foil and roast 3 hours. Check it periodically to make sure everything is going along just fine, and turn the roast over every hour.
• Remove the foil and continue roasting until the pork has reached an internal temperature of 190 degrees F, about 1 1/2 more hours. Remove from the oven, cover loosely with foil and let rest 30 minutes.
• Sometime during the marathon cooking time, make the sauce: Combine the vinegar, garlic, chile, brown sugar, tomato paste, dijon mustard and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Taste it to make sure it is delicious; set aside. Remove the chile. When the sauce is cool, I recommend putting it in a squeeze bottle for easy use.
• Pull the pork into long shreds using 2 forks. Get rid of the fat and anything else that doesn't look delicious. Toss the pork with any residual pan juices and add salt to taste.
• Serve the pork on slider rolls with a drizzle of sauce; top with coleslaw.

PULLED PORK SLIDERS

Steps:

• For the pulled pork: Sprinkle the pork with salt and add to a 6- to 7-quart slow cooker, along with the ketchup, soy sauce, honey, ginger, sesame oil and garlic. Cook on low until completely tender, about 8 hours.
• Shred the pork into small pieces and toss in the sauce to coat. Add salt to taste.
• For the pineapple slaw: Whisk together the oil, vinegar, honey and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add the coleslaw mix, pineapples, jalapenos and scallions and toss to coat.
• Make slider sandwiches with the sweet rolls, pulled pork and pineapple slaw.

ROASTED PORK SLIDERS

Steps:

• For the roasted pork: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Season the pork loin on all sides with the salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl, combine the coconut milk and BBQ sauce. Set aside.
• In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, add the canola oil and heat until the oil just starts to smoke. Add the pork to the skillet fat-side down. Sear on all sides until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Set the pork aside on a plate.
• Stir in the onions and cook until softened and browned, about 2 minutes. Add the diced pineapple, then place the seared pork on top of the onions and pineapple. Pour some of the BBQ mixture over the pork, coating the top, then pour the rest around the skillet, stirring it into the onion-pineapple mixture as much as possible. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the pork and onions are deeply caramelized, and the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145 degrees F, 35 to 40 minutes. Let rest 10 to 15 minutes.
• For the slaw: Combine the napa and red cabbage together in a bowl. Add the salt and toss. Stir in the Spicy Mayo, adding more if desired, to evenly coat the cabbage. Set aside.
• To assemble: Slice the pork into thin rounds, then cut the rounds in half to make half-moons. Season the pork slices with salt. Place a heaping tablespoon of the pineapple and onions on top of each bottom bun, followed by 2 to 3 half-moon slices of pork, then a heaping tablespoon of the slaw. Place the top buns over the slaw on each. Serve immediately.
• Combine the mayonnaise, coconut milk, sriracha and lime juice in a bowl and stir together until smooth. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use, up to a week.

JACKFRUIT PULLED "PORK" SLIDERS

Steps:

• Make the smoky sweet BBQ sauce: Combine the tomato sauce, mustard, brown sugar, cane sugar, vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, liquid smoke and smoked paprika in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer until thickened, about 30 minutes. Set aside. Season to taste.
• For the sliders: Heat the canola oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook until it begins to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the jackfruit and 1 1/2 cups of the Smoky Sweet BBQ sauce and bring to a boil. Stir well to combine, then cover and simmer for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add water if the sauce becomes too thick.
• After 20 minutes, remove the lid and shred the jackfruit with two forks. Increase the heat and cook until the jackfruit is well coated with BBQ sauce and heated throughout, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Divide the jackfruit evenly among the slider buns and top with pickles.

PULLED PORK SLIDERS

Steps:

• Stir together condensed soup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and garlic powder in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add pork roast and toss to cover with sauce.
• Cover and cook on Low until pork is fork tender and slightly pink in the center, 8 to 9 hours. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Spoon off any fat and discard.
• Transfer pork to a cutting board and shred the meat with 2 forks. Return meat to the slow cooker and toss in sauce to coat, adding tomato sauce if it needs more sauce.
• Divide pork among slider rolls and serve with hot pepper sauce.

ASIAN PORK SLIDERS

Steps:

• Make the Tri-Color Asian Slaw: Put all ingredients in a bowl and toss well. Let the slaw sit at least 15 minutes before serving.
• Make the sliders: Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Put the pork, soy sauce, red onion, and ginger in a large bowl and stir together to incorporate. Form 8 patties, using 3 to 4 tablespoons of pork mixture in each one and shaping them 1/2-inch thick. Be sure not to overwork or overhandle the mixture.
• Grill the burgers over direct heat, turning once, until fully cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
• Toward the end of the sliders' grilling time, grill the buns: Slice them in half if necessary, then grill the cut sides until lightly marked and lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
• Let the sliders rest on a platter or cutting board for 5 minutes after grilling, then set 1 slider in each bun and top with Tri-Color Asian Slaw. Serve.
