Easy, extra saucy, pulled pork sliders – the meal that saves you time and makes you look like a rock star!! Your trusty ole crock pot will do all the major work and there’s a secret ingredient that makes this pork extra tender…okay, I’ll spill, it’s cola!! That’s right, just like your Grandma’s pulled pork (maybe)! So saucy and delicious. I’ll be honest though, I usually buy one can just for this recipe, as I’m not a big cola drinker, but it’s worth the trip. I’m not sure what exactly is in the cola to bring such flavor (and I’m sure I don’t want to know) but give it a try!

ingredients

Pulled Pork:

  • 2.3 to 2.5 lb pork shoulder
  • 1 can of cola
  • 1 cup of bbq sauce
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground pepper
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 package of Hawaiian rolls
  • pickle slices

instructions:

  1. Place pork shoulder in a crock pot, sprinkle all seasonings over the pork
  2. Stir together the cola and bbq sauce, pour over the top of pork. Place the lid on top, set crock pot on low and cook for about 4 to 4 1/2 hours, or until for tender and 195 degrees
  3. Remove pork from crock pot, shred, and add back into the crock pot. Mix together with the sauce. Grab your rolls, pile on the pulled pork, drizzle some extra sauce, and top with pickle slices

6 cups romaine lettuce chopped (about 3 small heads)
1 small red onion, diced

Okay I know Easter is basically over… but you need Okay I know Easter is basically over… but you need to save this for next year 🐰✝️ Or honestly, just make it all spring long 🌸

My dad (who doesn’t bake at all) made this cake when I was little, and it’s one of my fav core Easter memories 🤍 It’s so cute, fun to get kids involved with, and instantly makes everything feel a little more fun and special!

INSTRUCTIONS:
Bake your favorite cake in two 8-inch round pans. Let them cool completely, then wrap and freeze for easier cutting.

Keep one cake whole for the face. Cut the second cake to create the ears and bow tie, then arrange everything on a platter.

Frost with white icing and cover with shredded coconut (leave a little space in the ears for pink frosting). 

Decorate with gumdrops, jelly beans, fruit punch straws, or whatever candy you have on hand!

SAVE this for spring or next Easter 🐰

INGREDIENTS:

Chicken Marinade
1 1/2 lbs chicken breast, sliced into tenders
1 1/2 cups whole milk
1 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tbsp garlic powder
1/2 tbsp onion powder
1/2 tbsp paprika
1 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper

Seasoned Flour Coating
1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp black pepper

Sauce
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup ketchup
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp cracked black pepper
Salt, to taste

Oil for frying
For Serving: French fries, Texas toast, and coleslaw

Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine the chicken and all marinade ingredients. Mix well, cover, and refrigerate overnight.

In another bowl, whisk together all seasoned flour coating ingredients. Remove the chicken from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off. Dredge each piece in the seasoned flour coating, pressing firmly to coat. Lift and gently shake off excess flour, then place on a wire rack set over a sheet pan.

Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes, then dredge again in the seasoned flour coating. Return to the rack and let sit for another 15 minutes. This helps create that extra crispy texture.

In a small bowl, mix all sauce ingredients together and refrigerate until ready to use.

Heat oil in a heavy bottom pan to 350°F. Fry the chicken in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown, crispy, and fully cooked.

Serve with sauce, French fries, Texas toast, and coleslaw.
