With Football season in full swing and the holidays right around the corner, you can never have enough recipes to serve to a crowd. These Barbecue Pork Tenderloin Sliders are perfect as an appetizer, chili or soup, or even a side salad for a hearty lunch.
One of our favorite kitchen appliances, the Slow Cooker, was our friend in this recipe, making the Pork Tenderloin super easy to cook. Toss it in with the red onion, sprinkle with thyme and let it cook away.
These Sliders are also a great way to use up any leftovers you may have. Of course, we used Pork, but you could also use chicken or beef. A simple toss with your favorite barbecue sauce and a pinch of shredded lettuce stuffed into a KING’S HAWAIIAN® Dinner Rolls.
The sweetness of the dinner roll pairs well with the tang in the barbecue sauce.
