BBQ Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese

[heart_this] · Apr 27, 2013 · 11 Comments

BBQ Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese

A grilled cheese sandwich full of succulent BBQ pulled pork smothered in melted cheese.

The National Grilled Cheese Month is coming to an end soon but I still have a few grilled cheese sandwiches up my sleeves including this tasty BBQ pulled pork grilled cheese! In my opinion it is hard to go wrong combining succulent pulled pork in a sweet, tangy and spicy BBQ sauce and then smothering it in ooey gooey melted cheese! BBQ pulled pork sandwiches are often served with the addition of a cool and creamy coleslaw right in the sandwich and I see nothing wrong with adding some to the grilled cheese version either, though it does make for a slightly messier sandwich. The next time you make some pulled pork, make a lot to ensure that you have some leftovers for these BBQ pulled pork grilled cheese sandwiches!

If you prefer, feel free to serve the coleslaw on the side; that way you can get even more BBQ pulled pork into the sandwich!

    This looks great. Looking at all these grilled cheeses totally inspired me. I'm gonna try a kimchi beef grilled cheese with cheesesteak meat. Oh man, I am so hungry. Gah! And gorgeous photos, as always.

    Grilled pulled pork with swiss and NC slaw then vinegary NC BBQ sauce without sugar to dip my sandwich in…the way to go…HEAVEN!

    Gooey and messy…usually have to finish it with a knife and fork but it's sooooo good!
