BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich

Instructions

1. 1

   Drain and rinse the jackfruit, then pat dry and shred it using a fork or your fingers, mimicking the texture of pulled pork.

2. 2

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant.

3. 3

   Add the shredded jackfruit to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it begins to brown slightly.

4. 4

   Pour the vegan BBQ sauce over the jackfruit and reduce the heat to low. Stir well to coat the jackfruit evenly with the sauce.

5. 5

   Cover the skillet and simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally. The jackfruit should absorb the flavors of the BBQ sauce and become tender.

6. 6

   If the mixture becomes too dry, add a little water to keep it moist.

7. 7

   Once the jackfruit is tender and flavorful, remove from heat. Serve the BBQ jackfruit on toasted buns with additional BBQ sauce if desired and your choice of toppings such as coleslaw or pickles.
