Remove pork from slow cooker and place on a plate or cookie sheet and let rest for 30 minutes.7) While the pork roast is resting make a slurry of 2 teaspoons corn starch and 1/4 cup cold water, add the slurry to the cooking juices in the slow cooker and cover and let cook for 30 minutes on high to thicken the juices.8) Shred the cooled pork and add back into the crock. Toss with the toasted sesame seeds (if using) and mix with the now slightly thickened juices.9) In a large mixing bowl toss the bagged broccoli slaw with the toasted sesame oil, seasoned rice vinegar and minced garlic.10) Cover bowl and refrigerate while your pork roast is cooking to let the flavors blend.11) Split open slider rolls, dinner rolls or Hawaiian rolls.12) Place a bit of the pulled pork on the bottom roll and top with some slaw.13) Top with the top bun.14) Eat and enjoy!Recipe Notes: To make this recipe gluten-free use lettuce wraps instead of rolls and use gluten free soy sauce. **If you cannot find broccoli slaw in your grocery store's produce section feel free to use a bag of cabbage based coleslaw mix or a couple cups of finely shredded cabbage.Nutrition InformationCalories: 239kcal, Total Fat: 10g, Saturated Fat: 3g, Polyunsaturated Fat: 1g, Monounsaturated Fat: 4g, Cholesterol: 37mg, Sodium: 283mg, Potassium: 242mg, Carbohydrates: 21g, Dietary Fiber: 1g, Sugars: 7g, Protein: 15g, Vitamin A: 5%, Vitamin C: 16%, Calcium: 7%, Iron: 10%Source: crockpotladies.com
