Instructions
Prepare the Rub:
- Combine all the ingredients for the BBQ rub and mix until well combined.
- Sprinkle the rub on the pork, massaging it into the meat.
- Place the pork in one layer in a dish, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
Brown the Pork:
- Set the Instant Pot to Sauté.
- Add a splash of neutral oil and brown the pork in batches on all sides.
- Set the browned pork aside.
Cook in the Instant Pot:
- Return the pork (with any juices) to the pot.
- Add bay leaves and crumble over the stock cube.
- Pour over the ginger beer, ensuring most of the meat is submerged.
- Close the lid and cook on HIGH for 1 hour.
Reduce the Sauce:
- Manually release the pressure and remove the pork onto a tray.
- Set the Instant Pot back to Sauté and boil the remaining liquid for about 20 minutes until it reduces to roughly 2 cups.
Shred and Combine:
- Shred the pork with two forks, keeping some texture.
- Pour the reduced sauce over the meat, mix well, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Assemble the Sliders:
- Slice the slider rolls in half and butter both sides.
- Toast the rolls in an Air Fryer at 350°F (180°C) until lightly browned.
- Remove the tops, then top the bottoms with the pulled pork and grated mozzarella.
- Return to the Air Fryer or oven until the cheese melts.
- Top with sliced pickles and a dollop of coleslaw.
- Drizzle with your favourite BBQ or hot sauce before serving.
