Ingredients
Sliders
- ⅓ cup Mole Coloradito
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tbsp Brown Sugar
- 1 Garlic clove, minced
- 3 Tablespoons lime juice
- 2.5 lbs of pork
- 1 Cup Chicken Stock
For the Slaw:
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- ½ carrot shredded
- ¼ cup minced cilantro
- ½ tbsp oregano
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 4 tablespoons lime juice
Instructions
For the Pulled Pork
- In a large bowl mix together the mole, salt, brown sugar, garlic, and lime juice. Cut the pork into fist sized sized chunks and mix in the sauce to coat. Pour the chicken stock into the bottom of a slow cooker or dutch oven and place the pork on top.
- Cook your pork in the slow cooker on high for 4-6 hours or if using the dutch oven place the pork in the chicken stock, cover and cook in an oven for 2-2½ hours at 300*F.
For the Slaw
- In a large bowl, toss together the cabbage, carrot, cilantro, oregano and salt. Mix in the lime juice and toss everything again to combine.
To assemble
- Take a spoonful of the pork and place it on the bottom bun, top with a spoonful of slaw. (Note: because the pork is juicy, you don't need to schmear mayo on the buns, but if you love mayo go ahead and do it!)
