Shredded Pork Sandwiches



These were easy and yummy!! I was short on time and didn't get to make french bread, so I picked up a loaf between the two soccer practices. The pork was cooked in the crock pot and ready when we got home. Just had to throw it all together.










Shredded Pork Sandwiches


I'm not quite sure how to write this up. When I buy pork tenderloin, I usually cut it into 3 or 4 large pieces and then package them individually to freeze. I made this sandwich with one of those portions. My husband LOVES the hot cauliflower and the little hot yellow peppers that you buy in jars. I used some of the juice from the bottle to cook the pork in.


Directions: (sort of:)) Defrost pork. Salt and pepper pork and place in crock pot. Add juice from a jar of hot cauliflower or hot peppers. I add enough to come about 1/3 to 1/2 up the pork. Cook on low for 4-6 hours until the pork is cooked through. Shred pork in the crock pot. Slice a loaf of French bread in half(see pic above). I pull some of the bread out of the top and bottom of the bread to make room for the meat and toppings. My kids LOVE to snack on the yummy 'middle' bread while I finish the sandwiches. Butter both pieces of bread. Place them on a baking sheet in the oven under the broiler until they start to brown. Spread the pork on the bottom piece of the french bread, cover with shredded Monterrey jack cheese and place back under the broiler until the cheese melts. Add your favorite toppings and slice into individual servings. ENJOY!! --I hope this makes sense:)
