Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp. chili powder
  • 1/4 cup cider vinegar
  • Kosher salt and pepper
  • 1 pork butt or shoulder
  • 1/2 cup lowfat sour cream
  • 1/2 small green cabbage (about 1 lb)
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro
  • 4 rolls
  • Potato chips and pickles

Directions

    1. Step 1In a 5- to 6-qt slow cooker, whisk together the ketchup, sugar, chili, 1/4 cup vinegar and 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper.
    2. Step 2Add the pork and toss to coat. Cook, covered, until the pork is tender and shreds easily, 7 to 8 hours on low or 4 to 5 hours on high.
    3. Step 3Forty-five minutes before serving, in a large bowl, whisk together the sour cream, remaining 2 Tbsp vinegar, 1 Tbsp water and 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper. Core and thinly slice the cabbage, add it to the sour cream mixture and toss to coat. Let sit, tossing occasionally. Fold in the cilantro before serving.
    4. Step 4Using two forks, shred the pork into large pieces; gently toss in the cooking liquid. Fill the rolls with the pork and slaw. Serve with chips and pickles, if desired.

Tips & Techniques

Switch it up: Replace the pork with a 2-lb brisket (trimmed of excess fat) and cook as directed. Or use 2 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs and decrease the cooking times by 2 hours.

Use up the ingredient: Make a double batch of slaw and save half. Whisk 1 Tbsp honey into 1/4 cup orange juice, toss with the reserved slaw and serve with grilled steak, chicken or lamb. (Refrigerate, covered, for up to 2 days.)
