These slow-cooked pulled pork sliders make a great appetizer for game day or any gathering. The pork roast is mixed with BBQ sauce and various other ingredients and then cooked in the slow cooker for 5-6 hours. The pulled pork is then put onto slider buns and topped with coleslaw. The coleslaw recipe is very simple and only uses a few ingredients. If you want to save time, you can just buy a bag of shredded cabbage and carrot mix from the store. This recipe will make enough to feed a lot of people. You should be able to get at least 20 sliders out of this recipe. If you want, you can cut the recipe down a bit by getting a smaller pork roast. This is another great recipe to prepare for the Super Bowl. Enjoy.

Ryan - You could double the recipe but that would make a lot of servings and 8lbs of pork roast is a lot. How many servings do you need?

What if you need more than 8 servings... do you multiply the ingredients to the number of servings?

Sarah- hmm, heat the oven to 350. Cut the road into 2 equal pieces. Place into a dutch oven with all of the ingredients, cover and bake for about 2-3 hours or until the pork is fully cooked and shreds easily. You can give that a try if you want.
