Pulled Jackfruit gives a very similar look to pulled pork making it a popular vegetarian or vegan substitute at a barbecue. It also is very flavorsome also contributing to its popularity.

When menu planning it is well worth keeping in mind however that there is no significant protein so the pulled jackfruit slider should be accompanied by a high-protein side dish like a chickpea salad or tofu fries to create a well-balanced meal.

This recipe uses a very simple cabbage and mayonnaise slaw however this can be upgraded to your favorite slaw or include a storebought cabbage vegetable mix or a fancier mayo such as wasabi or sriracha styles.
