Ingredients

For the Root Beer Pulled Pork:

  • 1 (3 to 4-pound) Boston Butt or pork shoulder
  • seasoned salt
  • 1 cup root beer
  • 1 teaspoon liquid smoke

For the Sweet and Spicy Slaw:

  • 1 (14-ounce) bag cole slaw mix
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sriracha (or more)

For the Cornbread Waffles:

  • 1 (8.5-ounce) box cornbread mix (I use Jiffy)
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons butter (melted)

Instructions

For the Root Beer Pulled Pork:

  • Liberally coat the Boston butt with the seasoned salt. Place it in the crock of a 4 to 6-quart slow cooker. Pour the root beer around the edges. Add the liquid smoke. Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours. The meat is done when it shreds easily. Remove it from the slow cooker and it to cool until easily handled, then shred the meat with two large forks, discarding the fat. Set aside.

For the Sweet and Spicy Slaw:

  • In a small bowl, combine the mayo, sugar, vinegar, and sriracha to make the dressing. This amount of sriracha doesn't make the slaw very spicy. If you like more heat, add more sriracha. Mix the dressing with the slaw mix and place it in the fridge.

For the Cornbread Waffles:

  • Preheat your favorite waffle iron according to the manufacturer's directions.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cornbread mix, milk, egg, and melted butter. Mix until smooth. Use the batter to make the waffles according to the waffle iron manufacturer directions. I used my Belgian waffle maker to make 3 waffles.

To make the sandwiches:

  • Slice the waffles into 4 pieces and place a heaping amount of the pulled pork on top of one of the waffle sections. Add your favorite BBQ sauce, then top with a large scoop of the slaw. Top with another waffle section and enjoy!!
