Slider Ingredients
1 Can Jack Fruit, drained
1/2 White Onion, diced
1 Cup Barbecue Sauce (we recommend our homemade BBQ sauce) or 1/4 Cup Franks Hot Sauce
3-4 Tsp. JamDinners Buffalo Wing Dry Rub
2 Cloves Garlic, minced
2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
Salt and Pepper to taste
Slider Toppings
3-4 Fresh Buns
Coleslaw
Avocado
Tomato Slices
Red Onion, sliced
Jalapenos, sliced
Directions
If making the BBQ sauce, then in a small sauce pan, combine the hot sauce and the barbecue sauce ingredients and simmer together over low heat. Drain the can of jackfruit and shred immediately. I found that pulling apart by hand worked the best. Heat the olive oil in a medium sauce pan and add onions when oil is hot. Saute about 5-6 minutes then add the garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add in the jack fruit, cook for a couple minutes then add in the barbecue sauce. Stir well and bring to simmer. Add a couple tbsp. of water throughout if the mixture is too thick. Allow to cook for 15-20 minutes.
If not making a BBQ sauce, add a little oil to a pan, heat over medium heat and add the jackfruit. Season with our buffalo dry rub and hot sauce. Mix well.
Remove the jackfruit from heat, dress the buns with desired toppings, scoop shredded jackfruit on top and enjoy!
