Ingredients

vegan pulled pork

1 yellow onion, thinly sliced (about 2 cups sliced)
2 tablespoon neutral vegetable oil
10 oz cremini mushrooms, roughly diced
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 C canned or jarred artichokes, roughly chopped
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon ground mustard
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ C tomato paste
2 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
⅓ C packed light or dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

creamy slaw

4 C store bought bagged coleslaw
⅓ C vegan mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
½ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

sandwiches

4 multigrain burger buns
2 dill pickles, thinly sliced

Instructions

Heat a large pan over medium high heat with vegetable oil.
Once hot add the sliced onions and sauté for 5 minutes until softened and slightly browned.
Add mushrooms and minced garlic and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes until most of the water from the mushrooms has evaporated.
Add the roughly chopped artichokes and cook for 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add smoked paprika, ground mustard, sea salt, ground pepper, tomato paste, soy sauce, brown sugar, and apple cider vinegar and stir to combine well. Spread out the mixture into an even layer in the pan and cook for 15 more minutes only stirring once or twice. You’re trying to caramelize the mixture a little bit so don’t stir it too much. It will reduce and get much darker in colour.
Serve immediately on lightly toasted buns. Top with slaw and pickle slices!

Notes

If you want to make these into sliders like in the video, double the recipe above for the vegan pulled pork and the creamy coleslaw. It will make anywhere from 18 to 24 sliders, depending on the size of the buns.
