Ingredients for this Pulled Pork Sliders Recipe

• Pulled pork – You’ll need some tasty BBQ pulled pork to make these amazing sliders. Make some Instant Pot pulled pork for a quick recipe, or slow cooker pulled pork for a set and forget recipe that can cook all day long.
• Bacon – Grab some tasty thick cut bacon and slice it into large chunks.
• Colby Jack cheese – I love the flavor that Colby Jack cheese gives to these, but you can use any cheese that you want!
• Worcestershire sauce – This yummy sauce adds a lovely depth of flavor.
• BBQ sauce – Grab your favorite BBQ sauce from the grocery store, or make your own homemade BBQ sauce instead.
• Butter – I recommend using unsalted butter since you’ll be adding garlic salt to the melted butter, but feel free to use salted butter if you prefer.
• Hawaiian slider buns – The sweetness of Hawaiian rolls goes so well with the savory sweet flavor of all the other ingredients. If you can’t find these though, feel free to replace them with plain sliders buns.

How to Make Pulled Pork Sliders

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Then place chopped bacon into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook until bacon reaches desired crispiness, then remove and let bacon sit on a paper towel lined plate.

Place slider buns on a cutting board and cut in half, separating the top from the bottom. Remove the top buns and set them aside.

Put the bottom layer of the buns into a 9×13 baking dish, and then layer the pulled pork over the bottom buns. Top with BBQ sauce, cooked bacon and slices of cheese.

Then place the top half of the buns onto the sliders.

Next, add butter, Worcestershire sauce and garlic salt to a microwave-safe bowl. Pop into the microwave and heat for 30-60 seconds, or until fully melted.

Stir the mixture well, then use a basting brush to cover the top of sliders.

Place the dish into the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, until cheese is fully melted and the tops of the buns are golden brown.

Serve immediately and enjoy!

What to Serve with Pulled Pork Sliders

Serving these easy sliders as an appetizer? Then serve a tasty dip like Mexican street corn dip or easy BLT dip alongside the most perfect sliders. Air fryer fried pickles would be a tasty side too! Or make the crowd favorite, rotel dip, to go with pulled pork sliders.

If you need a simple side to serve with these sliders as a meal, air fryer tater tots and air fryer french fries are both perfect.

I also love to serve this meal with sweet potato fries or air fryer sweet potato chips.

How to Store Leftover Pulled Pork Sliders

Store leftover sliders in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Keep in mind that the longer you store sliders on Hawaiian rolls, the soggier the buns will get. Either wrap the baking dish in plastic wrap or foil, or transfer leftover sliders to an airtight container.

I do not recommend freezing completed sandwiches, but you can freeze the pulled pork in an airtight container for up to 3 months. Then just allow it to thaw overnight and use it the next day in this super simple recipe!

How to Reheat Sliders

For best results, reheat in the oven until warmed through.

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and place sliders in the oven for 5-10 minutes or until warmed through.

What toppings go with pulled pork sliders?

BBQ sauce is, of course, the most common condiment to put on these tasty little sandwiches. But you could also use mayo or mustard! Some fresh dill pickles are always a tasty pairing with BBQ pulled pork too.

Though it may sound a bit odd, coleslaw is not only a good side dish for pulled pork sliders but it can also go on top of the sandwiches too!

Kick the spice up with toppings like jalapeños!

How many sliders should I make per person?

Generally, one person will eat 2-3 sliders. However, if you know you are serving a group that likes to eat then go ahead and make extra. Hawaiian rolls come in sheets of 12, so you can use that number to determine how many packs of buns to buy. And you’ll need 1lb of pulled pork per 12 buns.

BBQ pulled pork sliders, loaded with all of the flavors you know and love. This super easy recipe will be go-to for you and your family!
