Still Using up that Cabbage!

So I still have a head and a half of cabbage, and I'm thinking other than just steaming it as a side, what can I do? I thought of cole slaw, but Tyson doesn't like cole slaw much...so then I thought, but he DOES eat it if it is on a pulled pork sandwich! Perfect!

This is the pulled pork recipe I used:

1 tsp vegetable oil
1 (4 pound) shoulder butt roast
1 cup barbeque sauce
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup light brown sugar
1 Tbsp prepared yellow mustard
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbsp chili powder
1 large onion, chopped
2 large garlic cloves, crushed
1 1/2 tsp. dried thyme

Put oil in bottom of crock pot first. Then the pork and pour the rest of the ingredients (combined) on top. Cook low heat 6-8 hours. Pull pork out, take out bone and shred with fork. Add the juices from the crock pot back into it. I also added about another cup or two of BBQ sauce to thicken it and give it more BBQ flavor.


This makes a ton! But we just saved half in the fridge for leftovers later in the week, and froze the rest for later use.

Then stick it on a bun top with cole slaw! Here's the cole slaw I made!



KFC Style Cole Slaw

1/3 cup white sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
8 cups finely chopped cabbage
1/2 cup grated carrots

Mix sauce ingredients first. Add cole slaw and carrots. Let it sit in fridge for at least 2 hours before serving.

I halved this recipe and added a touch more sugar.



Then I served it with sweet potato fries (also left over from Bountiful Baskets).


Okay, so here is what we did with our cabbage part 2!

It was all super super yummy!
