Frequently Asked Questions & Expert Tips
Pulled pork sliders are best served right away, however, you can store any extra shredded pork in an air-tight container kept in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. When ready to reheat, assemble leftover pork on top of a slider bun and bake as directed, adding a couple of extra minutes in the oven if needed.
Serving Suggestions
Pulled pork sliders are great for parties and get-togethers, but are just as delicious served for dinner. In fact, you’ll have plenty left over to reheat throughout the week for lunch or dinner! Serve the sliders with toppings such as red cabbage, coleslaw, onion straws, and barbecue sauce.
If you’re serving these for a party, you can prepare the pork in a slow cooker and pre-toast the buns. Serve it buffet style with toppings on the side for guests to pile on and assemble themselves. Pair with potato chips, french fries, baked beans, or potato salad on the side
