Ingredients

  • 1 brioche bun
  • 100 g barbecue pork recipe below
  • 80 g cilantro lime apple slaw recipe below
  • 2.5 tbs Stubbs barbecue sauce because it's lowest in carbs or your favorite homemade*

Instructions

  • *Our favorite super simple (non-low carb!) homemade bbq sauce: I don't always want to spend the carbs on all this sugar but sometimes I just-- do!
  • Whisk together 1 cup ketchup, 1 cup brown sugar, and 1-2 tbs liquid smoke and microwave for a minute or bring to a light boil on the stove.

For the sandwich

  • Spray the inside of the buns with cooking spray and pan-toast on a skillet
  • Immediately top with shredded pork, bbq sauce, and cilantro lime apple slaw. Enjoy!! And then probably do it again because these boys are pretty darn light.
