Alabama White Sauce Pork Sandwiches

Cool, peppery white sauce makes a completely different sandwich from red-sauced barbecue. Use unsauced or lightly seasoned pulled pork so the mayonnaise, horseradish and cider vinegar stay clear. The cabbage goes on dry for crunch instead of becoming a second creamy layer.

Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups cooked unsauced pulled pork
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • 3/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp prepared horseradish
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp coarse black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 6 soft sandwich buns
  • 2 cups finely shredded green cabbage

Method
 

  1. Put the pulled pork and broth in a 4-quart slow cooker and toss to moisten it.
  2. Cover and heat on low until the pork is steaming throughout, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
  3. Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, horseradish, mustard, Worcestershire, garlic powder, black pepper and salt until smooth.
  4. Refrigerate the white sauce for at least 20 minutes so the pepper and horseradish settle into it.
  5. Toast the cut sides of the buns in a dry skillet if you want a sturdier sandwich.
  6. Fill each bun with hot pork, spoon on the white sauce and finish with a loose handful of cabbage.
