These Slow Cooker Hawaiian Pulled Pork Sandwiches are the perfect laid back dinner that is easy to make but tastes like a million bucks.

Plus, with the weather being hotter than Hades, using the slow cooker instead of the oven is a definite plus.

Hello friends! Melanie here again from Garnish & Glaze to share an awesome summer sandwich with you.


I do love a good classic pulled pork sandwich but sometimes you've gotta switch things up a bit and add some more color and texture. After trying this sandwich, I don't think you'll go back to the ordinary one not to mention the other Hawaiian inspired recipes you can find here.

The first step is elevating the flavor of the slow cooker pulled pork. Instead of cooking the pork with water or soda, you'll pour in some pineapple juice.

This adds sweetness as well as more of a Hawaiian flavor profile. You'll also add pineapple juice to the barbecue sauce and cook it down so it thickens.


I'm not a big fan of coleslaw as a side dish but it's a must on shredded meat sandwiches like my
Buffalo Chicken Sliders and pulled pork sandwiches.

I love that it balances out the sweetness of the sauce, adds freshness, color, and texture. Yes, it gets a bit messy but only the best foods are, right?!

The last component of this sandwich that really gives it the Hawaiian feel is the pineapple, grilled pineapple.


If you've ever been to one of those meat-lovin Brazilian restaurants I'm sure you've tried that delicious, sweet, buttery grilled pineapple.

It's seriously my favorite way to eat pineapple and tastes amazing with pork. It seems a little strange to put pineapple on a sandwich but it totally works. You'll love it!

Helpful Tips to make Slow Cooker Hawaiian Pulled Pork Sandwiches:

  • Plan ahead! Since you're working with the slow cooker, be sure to put the pork in sometime in morning so it has enough time to cook and get tender. It will take you all of 5 minutes to throw it in there so no excuses.
  • Make the barbecue sauce during the morning or day when you have time or at least 15 minutes before you're ready to shred the meat.
  • I recommend using a spicy barbecue sauce that isn't already too sweet. My go-to is Open Pit (Original). It's a great base and I'm able to add as much sugar as I want and tone down the heat by adding a little ketchup.
  • Buy the pineapple juice in small 6 ounces cans. They sell them in a set of 8. This way you won't waste any or have to store a big bottle of pineapple juice in the fridge. But if you do buy it in a bottle and don't know what to do with the rest, use it in smoothies!
  • Use fresh pineapple. After cutting off the skin, slice the pineapple into rings. Use a small round biscuit or cookie cutter to remove the middle core.
  • For a more colorful coleslaw, make your own mix of green and purple cabbage and carrots. Sometimes stores will make fresh coleslaw mixes and have them in next to the refrigerated salad dressings.

What you will need to make Slow Cooker Hawaiian Pulled Pork Sandwiches:

  • Slow Cooker- Every home needs a slow cooker. I love using it in the summer so I don't heat up the whole house and it is just makes cooking so much easier because you just set it and let it do all the work.
  • Small Sauce Pan- I use my small sauce pan all the time for steaming vegetables to making all kinds of delicious sauces for dinner and desserts.
  • Grill Pan- I love having a grill pan for small things like the pineapple in this dish or for the winter. You still get the beautiful grill marks without having to heat up the whole grill and walk in and out of the house.

Enjoy!

With love from our simple kitchen to yours.
