Vegan BBQ jackfruit pulled pork
Simple vegan pulled pork made with jackfruit, simmered until soft for a pull-apart, stringy and chewy consistency that's so much like pulled pork. Mixed with a simple bbq sauce and spices - it's delicious topped on burgers with homemade vegan coleslaw!

Ingredients
- 2 20-ounce cans young green jackfruit
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion
- 1 cup homemade barbecue sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1/4-1/2 cup water
- 8 burger buns
- 1-2 cups vegan coleslaw, optional
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
Directions
- Drain and rinse the jackfruit. Set aside.
- Add the olive oil and sliced onions to a medium skillet and sauté on medium heat until softened and slightly golden, four minutes.
- Add the jackfruit and oregano and cumin and stir together, then add the BBQ sauce and water and stir to combine. Lower the heat to a low simmer, cover the pan and leave to stew and soften for about 30 minutes.
- Remove the lid and use two forks to shred the jackfruit directly in the pan. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook for a couple of minutes if needed until just thick. If thick already, add a little water until just sloppy!
- Serve on toasted hamburger buns with vegan coleslaw and fresh coriander. Enjoy!
