Apple Butter Barbecue Sauce over Apple Bacon Pork Sandwich
My apple butter barbecue sauce is DELICIOUS! I mean D to the E to the Licious! I definitely feel like a true homesteading chef when I can put together an entire meal full of leftovers. This includes random ingredients from the pantry that I have on hand.
The night before I made these sandwiches, I had made a slow cooked pork tenderloin leaving half for leftovers in the fridge. Having bacon, apples and an excellent stash of apple butter in the pantry gave way to this light and tasty sandwich meal.
These pork sandwiches with apple butter barbecue sauce are sweet, spicy and salty. The sauce and sandwich combination is so unique that it will want you coming back for more and more. You can even put this into a wrap or pita bread for lunch or dinner. I personally like mine on toast or turn it into a grilled cheese sandwich. My babes like it best in a wrap for easier control in their little hands.
