Gluten Free BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwiches

BBQ Pulled Pork is one of my favorite meals, it’s tangy with just a hint of sweet and makes the perfect sandwich, but it doesn’t end there- tacos, cheese fries, the sky’s the limit!

This post is a follow up of a previous post about David’s Unforgettables Balsamic BBQ Sauce. I was not compensated for this and all opinions are my own.

BBQ Pulled Pork

A few weeks ago, I brought you Pulled Pork Tacos with a Hawaiian Coleslaw, if you missed it go back HERE and take a look. It was delicious. The great thing about making pulled pork though is that it can be used for so many things. Most simply of course, just on a sandwich.

We love pulled pork around here. It’s an inexpensive way to make a delicious dinner and mix up our weekly menu.

Eating a big helping of this BBQ pulled pork on a gluten free bun is a little taste of heaven.

Davids’ Balsamic BBQ Sauces

For this recipe, I used David’s Balsamic BBQ Sauces. You can use your favorite, but if you are able to try David’s I would recommend it! You can use their store locator to find out if they are available near you and they can be bought online.

I’ve made this with both the spicy and the regular and they are equally delicious. If you are making this with a different BBQ Sauce (and you can), just be sure you like the sauce. If you don’t like the sauce than you won’t like the final pulled pork. 

One Last Thing

I had to share with you one last way I love using BBQ Pulled Pork- Cheese Fries. It’s one of my weakness. Cheesy goodness with pulled pork dipped in ranch sauce. So good.

This BBQ pulled pork recipe is a favorite. I’m sure you will love it. Don’t forget to check out the BBQ Pulled Pork Tacos with the Hawaiian BBQ Sauces.

Happy Gluten Free Eating!
