Ingredients
Method
- Prep jackfruit: Drain, rinse, pat dry. Use forks to shred jackfruit into “pulled pork” look-alikes.
- Sauté aromatics: In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook until soft and nosy neighbors show up.
- Add jackfruit: Toss shredded fruit into skillet. Cook for 5 minutes, letting it soak up the sass (and oil).
- Season up: Stir in vinegar, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper. Mix well, because bland isn't welcome here.
- Sauce it: Pour in BBQ sauce. Simmer on low heat for 10 minutes until everything’s thick, saucy, and irresistible—like you on date night.
- Toast buns: While jackfruit simmers, toast your buns (literally, not metaphorically) for golden perfection.
- Assemble: Pile jackfruit onto buns. Add coleslaw if you’re feeling like an overachiever.
- Serve hot: Immediately. Preferably with napkins and zero judgment.
