Indulge in our savory BBQ pulled pork stuffed bread rolls, a comfort food twist that combines tender meat, gooey cheese, and soft bread. A must-try delight!
Ingredients
- • All-purpose flour: 4 cups
- • Instant yeast: 2 1/4 tsp
- • Warm water: 1 1/2 cups
- • Salt: 1 tsp
- • Sugar: 2 tbsp
- • Olive oil: 2 tbsp
- • Butter (melted): 2 tbsp
- • Pork shoulder (boneless): 2 lbs
- • BBQ sauce: 1 cup
- • Cheddar cheese (shredded): 2 cups
- • Onion powder: 1 tsp
- • Garlic powder: 1 tsp
- • Smoked paprika: 1 tsp
- • Salt and pepper: to taste
Instructions
- 1 Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
- 2 Season the pork shoulder generously with salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and smoked paprika. Place it in a baking dish, cover with aluminum foil, and bake for 3 hours until tender and easily shredded.
- 3 While the pork is cooking, prepare the bread dough. In a large bowl, mix the warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 5 minutes until foamy.
- 4 Add the flour, salt, and olive oil to the yeast mixture. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in an oiled bowl, cover, and let rise for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- 5 Once the pork is cooked, shred it using two forks and mix in the BBQ sauce. Let it cool slightly.
- 6 Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- 7 Punch down the dough and divide it into 16 pieces. Flatten each piece into a disk and place a spoonful of pulled pork and a sprinkle of cheddar cheese in the center. Gather the edges and pinch to seal, forming a ball.
- 8 Place the stuffed rolls seam-side down on a baking sheet, brush with melted butter, and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown.
- 9 Let the rolls cool slightly before serving to allow the flavors to settle and develop fully.
Serving Suggestions
- • These savory stuffed rolls are a meal in themselves, but they pair beautifully with a crisp coleslaw or a fresh green salad to balance the rich flavors. For a beverage, consider a tall glass of iced tea or a frosty mug of root beer to complement the smoky BBQ notes. If you're serving them as an appetizer, they go well with a selection of dipping sauces like ranch or blue cheese for an extra layer of flavor.
Storage Tips
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, wrap them in foil and warm in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for about 10 minutes, or until heated through. You can also freeze the rolls for up to 2 months; just thaw them overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
