Ingredients:

1 LB cooked pulled pork, Carolina style (or pulled pork/chicken of your choice)
1 red bell pepper, sliced in to thin matchsticks
1 carrot, peeled and sliced in to thin matchsticks
1 jalapeno, seeded and chopped (more or less to taste)
1/2 C apple cider vinegar
1 TBSP soy sauce
1 TBSP brown sugar
1 TSP toasted sesame oil
1 large shallot
1/2 C fresh mint or cilantro, roughly torn
Peanut or canola oil, for frying
Mayonnaise
4 French-style sandwich rolls or mini baguettes

Directions

In a medium bowl, whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar and sesame oil. Add peppers, carrots and jalapenos and toss to coat. Refigerate for 30-60 minutes.
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, add just enough oil to coat the bottom. Thinly slice shallot crosswise and separate, forming skinny rings. When oil is hot, fry shallots until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel lined plate with a slotted spoon and set aside.
In a warm oven, reheat the pork until warm throughout. Slice baguettes 3/4 of the way though and place them, closed, in the oven to warm as well.
Drain the pepper mixture and discard the liquid.
Smear both sides of each baguette with a little mayo. Divide the pork among them. Top with the pepper mixture, cripsy shallots and fresh mint. Serve immediately.

Servings: 4 sandwiches

Preparation Time: 30 min active prep, 60 min total
