Barbecue Pork Tacos with Honey Mustard Slaw

January 25, 2016

These slow cooker Barbecue Pork Tacos with Honey Mustard Slaw are deeelicious and a great weeknight or game day meal. Ya know…Super Bowl is in like 12 days!

Barbecue Pork Tacos with Honey Mustard Slaw | www.stuckonsweet.comSee? I told you I was going to share more slow cooker recipes with you! Well… I have to admit…. that I have already shared a few slow cooked pork recipes, and this one is pretty much the same…

Buuuuuut it’s a totally different meal! So there you have it. One recipe for pork can turn into several different meals like these Pulled Pork Sliders with Garlic Aioli or these Pork Tacos with Avocado Cream Sauce.

So put this pork recipe in your back pocket. For sure.

Barbecue Pork Tacos with Honey Mustard Slaw | www.stuckonsweet.comSo we love us some tacos in our house. But who doesn’t, right? I love that tacos can take on tons of different flavors. I love Mexican food and those traditional Mexican flavors, of lime, a little spice, cilantro, cheese…you know a traditional taco. What do you like?

It’s fun to experiment with flavors…I decided to go the barbecue route with these tacos today. Instead of making a traditional slaw, I decided to make honey mustard slaw because we LOVE honey mustard in our house. This is us at restaurants “Excuse me. Ma’am, when you have a moment, can I get a side of honey mustard? Great, thank you!”

We love everything…ugh it’s a problem.

Barbecue Pork Tacos with Honey Mustard Slaw| www.stuckonsweet.comThese are made in the slow cooker so they come together in a flash! The pork cooks for 8 hours…all you have to do is shred it and mix it with some bbq sauce, then warm up some tortillas and make the slaw. This dinner pretty much comes together in 20 minutes or so, but it tastes like you’ve spent hours in the kitchen.

Super Bowl is right around the corner. Who are you rooting for? I could care less…I just want to eat food.

I am thinking these Barbecue Pork Tacos would be quite the hit for the big game.

Juuuuuust a thought.

Barbecue Pork Tacos with Honey Mustard Slaw | www.stuckonsweet.comWhat are your plans for Super Bowl? We are still working on our but it will definitely involve food….and more food.

Stuckonsweet.com: Jessica from www.stuckonsweet.com
Recipe type: Tacos
Serves: 8-10
Ingredients
  • 1 3-5 pound bone in or boneless pork roast
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Garlic powder
  • Your favorite barbecue sauce (I used Sweet Baby Ray's)
  • 1 bag corn tortillas
  • Chihuahua cheese
Honey Mustard Slaw
  • 1 bag slaw mix
  • 4 tablespoons dijon Mustard
  • ¾ cup mayonnaise
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • ¼ teaspoon plus ⅛ teaspoon salt
  • a few pinches back pepper
  • 2 tablespoons milk
Other optional toppings
  • Red onion
  • cilantro
  • green onion
  • scallions
Instructions
  1. Generously season the pork shoulder with salt, pepper and garlic powder, and rub pork shoulder with your favorite barbecue sauce (I used a pastry brush to help me do this). Place in a slow cooker and cook on low for 8 hours. Once cooked, remove pork shoulder and slightly shred - discard any fatty parts. Careful no to shred the pork too much - you want nice chunks of pork in your tacos. Add about ½ cup to 1 cup of your favorite barbecue sauce depending on how big your pork shoulder was.
  2. To make the slaw, whisk the mayo, dijon, honey, milk, salt and pepper in a bowl. Add the slaw to the honey mustard dressing and mix.
  3. To prepare tacos, place a skillet over medium heat. Add one corn tortilla to the skillet then place a handful of cheese on top of it, then place another corn tortilla on top of the cheese so the tortillas are "glued" together with cheese. Warm through for about a minute or two then flip and warm through on the other side. Add pork to the tortillas then top with slaw and any additional toppings as you wish.

      Bakes beans would be good or green beans. It’s not a traditional Mexican taco so think of barbecue sides. Corn would also be good.

    Absolutely. We just did one in our new Instant Pot. Took an hour to cook and about 20 minutes to de-pressurize. Came out excellent. We didn’t add bbq sauce til we made our sandwiches though.

    Is it possible to make these without a slow cooker? I have an instant pot, but I no longer have a slow cooker. And of course I have an oven.

      sure! I don’t know how to do the instant pot but I am sure there is a recipe out there similar for cooking instructions. Otherwise you could make cook it in a 300 degree oven for 3 hours probably in a large dutch oven.

    I use pork loin for all pork recipes. It is leaner and healthier and being on a healthy heart diet, I wouldn’t use anything else. I also eliminated all added salt.

    Hi! I wasn’t able to get a pork shoulder but I got a roast pork loin. Is that ok? Also can you cook on high for 6 hours?

      Hi Toni – a pork loin is a tougher meat than a pork shoulder. I don’t think it would work for tacos, but you could make it as a pork loin with the same seasoning and serve it with the honey mustard slaw. It’s meant to be roasted in the oven and then sliced. Hope that helps!

    Just wondering, can the coleslaw be made a day ahead of time? I am so excited to make these tomorrow but have a busy day….

      March 29, 2019 at 9:10 pm

      I would make the sauce and wait to toss it with the coleslaw until before serving. It can be made ahead of time but might get a little soggy if you’re ok with that. Enjoy

    Just put my pork in my slow cooker so we can have these for dinner tonight! I’m serving them with corn on the cob. For a smaller pork roast (2 lbs), how long would you suggest cooking it for? Also, for those wondering about Chihuahua cheese, I looked it up online and see that it’s similar to a mild cheddar.

    Question. When you put these in the Slow cooker, what liquid do you put in? I see that the recipe states to just rub bbq sauce on it. Is that all you put in there when it cooks?
