Jackfruit BBQ Sandwiches
These BBQ Jackfruit Sandwiches are a healthier alternative to a BBQ pulled pork sandwich. The texture is identical and the flavor is always in the sauce!
Servings 1 4-5 people
Ingredients
- 2 (14 oz) cans Young Jackfruit (rinsed, drained, shredded)
- 1 small Yellow Onion (white or red will work too)
- 1 cup BBQ Sauce (more to add on sandwich)
- 4-5 Buns
Toppings (optional)
- Coleslaw
- Pickles
- Pickled Onions
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375F. Drain and rinse jackfruit. Then use your hands or a fork to shred the jackfruit similar to pulled pork. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the onion for about 3-4 minutes until it's translucent. Then, add the jackfruit and bbq sauce in, mix together and sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
- Transfer the bbq jackfruit to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Make sure it's evenly spread. If your skillet is oven-friendly, it can be left in there. Put in the oven for 20 minutes. Once it's done, remove from oven and build your sandwich. You can add more BBQ sauce after if you'd like. Top it with slaw, pickled onions or other toppings you like. Enjoy!
