Pork and Slaw Sandwiches

Ingredients

• 1 (3-pound) boneless pork loin roast, trimmed
• 1 cup water
• 1 3/4 cups barbecue sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 1/2 tablespoons hot sauce
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 1/2 cups packaged cabbage-and-carrot coleslaw
• 1/4 cup canola mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon white vinegar
• 1/4 teaspoon sugar
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• 15 (2-ounce) hamburger buns

Preparation

1. 1. Place pork and 1 cup water in a 3- to 4-quart electric slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 7 hours or until meat is tender.
2. 2. Drain pork, discarding cooking liquid. Return pork to slow cooker; shred with 2 forks. Stir in barbecue sauce and next 3 ingredients (through pepper). Cover and cook on LOW for 1 hour.
3. 3. Combine coleslaw and next 4 ingredients (through salt) in a bowl; toss well. Place about 1/3 cup pork mixture and about 2 tablespoons slaw on bottom half of each bun; cover with bun tops.
4. Quick Tip: Using packaged cabbage-and-carrot coleslaw shaves time off the prep. Long gone are the days when you'd have to shred your own.
