Ingredients

Servings

Pumpkin Pulled Pork

  • 1 batch Pumpkin Barbecue Sauce mixed in the slow cooker
  • 2 ¾ lb. pork loin

Coleslaw

  • 16 oz. coleslaw mix
  • ¼ cup PLAIN yogurt
  • ¼ cup apple cider
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • ½ tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice freshly squeezed
  • ½ tablespoon honey
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon celery seed

Instructions

Make the Slow Cooker BBQ Pork

  1. In the slow cooker, combine the ingredients for the Pumpkin Barbecue Sauce (or pour the completed sauce into the slow cooker.)
  2. Nestle the pork into the sauce, and cover.
  3. Cook on LOW for 8 hours.
  4. Shred using a fork. Keep warm until ready for serving.

Make the Coleslaw

  1. In a large glass bowl, combine the yogurt, cider, vinegar, mustard, lemon juice, honey, salt, pepper and celery seed. 
  2. Whisk until combined.
  3. Pour in the bag of coleslaw, and toss using tongs.

Prepare and Serve the Bowls

  1. Scoop a hearty amount of the Pumpkin Pulled Pork into the bottom of your chosen bowls.
  2. Top with a hearty scoop of the coleslaw.
  3. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Make the pulled pork 1-2 days in advance. When it's time to eat, reheat in the microwave. (Or on a grill at a super low temperature or in a low temp oven, too, depending on where you are.)
  • The slaw sauce can be made in advance, too. Refrigerate it in a mason jar, but DO NOT toss the coleslaw together until it's serving time because it will become soggy.
  • Transport the bowls in separate dishes. Keep the pork separate from the bag of slaw, as well as the jar of slaw sauce. Warm the pork and mix the slaw together once you're at your final destination and just before guests are about to eat.
  • Serve the bowls for a weeknight dinner! Our kids love these in bowl form, but you could serve the pork and slaw on tortillas, too, or on buns if you're not going the low carb route.
