Pulled pork sliders transform leftover roast pork into a trendy street food feast! Tender pork is coated in a sweet, smoky and sticky sauce that is so irresistible. Pulled pork sliders are the perfect food to tuck into whilst watching a big sports game, or just celebrating on a Friday night in with friends. Pulled pork is an American classic that we just can’t get enough of. It makes a rich and flavourful filling for these mini sliders. Pulled pork is traditionally slow cooked on a barbecue, but we’ve used leftover roast pork for a speedy hack.

Method
- Preheat the oven to 150C. Place the pork in a roasting tin and cover with 400ml of water. Mix together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, ketchup, tomato paste, garlic, ginger and 5 spice. Pour this mix over the pork and mix together well. Cover with foil and cook the pork in the oven for 1 hour. Remove the foil and return to the oven for another 45-50 minutes, until the liquid has reduced and the pork is sticky. Remove and allow to cool slightly before shredding with two forks.
- Lightly toast your buns of choice, then fill with the pulled pork with lettuce, apple and tomato slices, and mayonnaise.
