  • 1 organic celery rib
  • ¼ pound organic shredded carrots
  • 2 tablespoons raisins
  • Sunbasket slaw dressing (paleo mayo - honey - apple cider vinegar - celery seeds)
  • 4 slider buns
  • 10 ounces braised pork shoulder (contains pork and spices)

  • 3 tablespoons pickled jalapeños (optional)
Ingredient IQ
Honey was used as a sweetener in European cookery long before cane sugar was widely available. It tastes sweeter than sugar, which means that less is needed in most recipes. Because it’s hydrophilic, or attracts water, it’s an excellent ingredient for baking; cakes made with honey often stay moist longer.

Make It Ahead
The carrot-raisin slaw (Step 1) can be prepared up to 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate overnight. When ready to serve, let the slaw come to room temperature as you proceed with Steps 2 through 4.

Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Make the carrot-raisin slaw

  • Trim the ends from the celery. Thinly slice the celery on the diagonal.
In a medium bowl, stir together the celery, carrots, raisins, and slaw dressing. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Let stand, stirring occasionally, while you prepare the rest of the meal.

2

Toast the buns

In a large frying pan, working in batches if needed, place the buns, cut sides down, and cook over medium-high heat until lightly toasted, 1 to 2 minutes. Alternatively, toast them in a toaster oven. Transfer to a plate.

3

Heat the pork

In the same pan used for the buns, warm 1 to 2 teaspoons [2 to 4 tsp] oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the pork and cook, stirring once or twice, until the meat begins to crisp around the edges, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in half the mustard BBQ blend (set aside the remaining BBQ blend for serving). Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper.

4

Assemble the sliders

Place the bun bottoms, cut sides up, on a work surface. Top each with the pork and as many pickled jalapeños as you like. Close with the bun tops.

Serve

Transfer the sliders and carrot-raisin slaw to individual plates. Serve the remaining mustard BBQ blend on the side.
