Instructions:

Prepare the Coleslaw

In a large bowl, mix plant-based mayo, apple cider vinegar, Dijon mustard, maple syrup, salt, and black pepper. Add shredded green cabbage, purple cabbage, and shredded carrots. Mix well.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, allowing flavors to meld.

Prepare and Cook the BBQ Jackfruit

Drain and rinse the canned jackfruit. Optionally, remove seeds and solid part of the jackfruit. Squeeze out excess water.

In a large pot, bring water to boil. Add jackfruit, sliced onion, minced garlic, and Better than Bouillon. Simmer over medium heat for 20 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Remove jackfruit from liquid using a slotted spoon and drain in a strainer.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add jackfruit and cook for 1-2 minutes.

Add smoky BBQ seasoning, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, liquid smoke, vegan-friendly Worcestershire sauce, and half of the BBQ sauce to the skillet. Cook for 5-7 minutes until jackfruit is coated and slightly caramelized.

Transfer jackfruit to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or brushed with oil. Bake for 20-30 minutes until slightly crispy.

Remove from oven and drizzle with additional BBQ sauce if desired.

Assemble the sliders

Spread remaining BBQ sauce on toasted slider buns.

Layer BBQ jackfruit and coleslaw on each bun.

Optionally, add pickles on top.
