Tangy sliced pork sandwiches are a delightful and satisfying meal option, perfect for those who love a burst of flavour in every bite. These sandwiches offer a harmonious blend of tender pork and zesty sauce, making them an ideal choice for lunch or dinner. Our version of tangy sliced pork sandwiches highlights a marinade that infuses the meat with a rich, savoury taste. This recipe is perfect for both casual family meals and entertaining guests, providing a gourmet experience with minimal effort.

Instructions

Prepare the marinade

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, and minced garlic until combined.

Pro tip: Ensure the sugar is fully dissolved for a smooth marinade.

Marinate the pork

Place the pork tenderloin in a large resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the pork, seal the bag, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Pro tip: The longer the marinating time, the more flavourful the pork will be.

Preheat the oven

Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).

Cook the pork

Remove the pork from the marinade and place it on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 63°C (145°F).

Pro tip: Use a meat thermometer to check the pork's internal temperature.

Rest the pork

Let the pork rest for 10 minutes after removing it from the oven. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Pro tip: Tent with foil to keep it warm.

Assemble the sandwiches

Thinly slice the pork and layer it on the bottom half of each roll. Top with coleslaw and drizzle with barbecue sauce. Place the top half of the roll on top and serve immediately.

Pro tip: Warm the rolls slightly before assembling for added texture.
