Prep Time: 10 mins
Cooking Time: 12 mins
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 8 thick slices English muffin bread or sourdough bread
- 8 tablespoons butter, softened
- 1 (16-ounce) Frigo® Fresh Mozzarella Cheese, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
- 2 cups pulled BBQ pork
- 1 cup BBQ Sauce
- 1 small red onion, sliced thin, optional
- 4 leaves of lettuce, optional
- 4 sweet gherkin pickles, optional
- Cole slaw, optional
Directions
Preheat the broiler in your oven set to low.
Butter both sides of each bread slice. Place the slices on a sheet tray and cook for 5 minutes or until the bread is browned on one side.
Flip all the slices of bread, and top 4 slices with a slice (or two) of Frigo® Fresh Mozzarella Cheese. Top the other 4 slices with a half cup of BBQ pork and a slice of Frigo® Fresh Mozzarella Cheese.
Allow to bake for 5 – 7 minutes or until the cheese has melted and the BBQ pork is warmed through.
Make sandwiches by layering the BBQ pork topped bread with a few slices of red onion, lettuce, and BBQ sauce as desired. Finally, finish by placing the bubbly, melty Frigo® Fresh Mozzarella Cheese topped piece of bread on the sandwiches and hold them shut with a sweet gherkin spiked skewer.
Serve hot with coleslaw and more BBQ sauce for dipping!
