Leftover bbq pork sandwiches with peach bbq sauce = not a meal that I ever planned to make. Actually, my plan the day that I made these was to turn the slow cooker pork shoulder I’d made a couple of days before into Cuban sandwiches. The problem? I’d purchased a loaf of Cuban bread from the Publix bakery on Friday and by Tuesday it was completely dried out. The struggle is real, y’all.
Mind you, I already had these onion rings (recipe coming soon…these onion rings were fantastic and baked) in the oven, so I was pretty much committed at that point and needed to make something that I could throw together in the 10 minutes left on the timer. Then I remembered that I still had about half of the peach white wine sauce that I made to go with the pork shoulder and a pack of potato rolls in the freezer, and suddenly it all made sense. If I stirred a little ketchup into the sauce, I could make a simple barbecue sauce and avoid throwing away that delicious peach sauce…perfect!
These sandwiches came together in less than ten minutes. Don’t you love it when a meal comes together like that? It’s pretty exciting. For the two of us, this one pork shoulder made six meals (Cuban sandwiches and pork ragu with polenta coming up later this week, and more in the freezer!). Of course, for a larger family, you’ll need to cook a larger pork shoulder to get that many meals…but is that really a bad thing? There’s really nothing better than being halfway to dinner being done before you even get started. Look for more of these make-ahead style meals coming soon!
I hope you’ll make these leftover bbq pork sandwiches with peach bbq sauce!
