Mango BBQ Pulled Pork Sliders are a delicious Caribbean twist on a classic favorite. The sweet and tangy flavors of mango and BBQ sauce perfectly complement the tender pulled pork, making these sliders a hit at any gathering.
Ingredients
- 3 lbs pork shoulder, trimmed of excess fat and cut into large chunks
- 1 cup mango puree
- 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 12 slider buns
- 1 cup coleslaw (optional, for serving)
Instructions
- In a slow cooker, combine the mango puree, BBQ sauce, brown sugar, onion, garlic, cumin, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- Add the pork shoulder chunks to the slow cooker and toss to coat with the mango BBQ sauce mixture.
- Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours, until the pork is tender and easily shreds with a fork.

- Toast the slider buns in a skillet or in the oven until lightly golden.
- Assemble the sliders by placing a generous amount of the mango BBQ pulled pork on each bun. Top with coleslaw if desired.
