What do you serve on pulled pork sandwiches?

I stopped by a BBQ joint in Winnsboro, Texas, the other day and ordered a pulled pork sandwich. The owner served me and said "I usually serve sweet relish on pulled pork, want to try it." I did and it was really good. What do you usually serve on pulled pork? I usually just add my favorite BBQ sauce and sometimes slaw, but I bought some red sweet relish the other day and I'm planning on serving it on the pork butt I'm cooking now.

    I learned from Leroy to use cole slaw and it works for me.

    It's usually BBQ sauce for me too. I recognize the brand of the pepper relish. I've not tried the relish, but they also make jams, jellies, pickles - tons of good stuff. I've had bread and butter pickles - better than any I've ever made. Also they make pickled asparagus that is great! The produce stand where I shop carries a lot of it. (Oh, almost forgot they make cheese, butter, and candy too)....Love it. :P

    elzbth, this is the first time that I've tried Amish Wedding products, but the local specialty store carries a full line on their products. I'll have to check out the pickles and cheese. Thanks for the recommendation.

    I used to be "just meat" but became a slaw topper when I moved to Tennessee.

    I did once use "chow chow" to top a pulled pork sandwich and it is like a relish.

    Relish? On pork barbecue? No thanks. Vinegar sauce and cole slaw, please.

    If you want to ask a question about BEEF, ask a Texan. Otherwise, leave them alone. :laugh:

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    Here's an idea...how bout mixing some of that relish in some homemade slaw. Bam!


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    I'm a relative novice at serving pulled pork, but I let everyone fix their own. I however love it with cole slaw and a little bit of BBQ sauce mmmm :cheer:

    I usually use BBQ sauce and sometimes slaw.

    From time to time I mix up a mango habanero "relish" that is fantastic.

    I use a NC vinegar based sauce, sliced pickles and slaw. This isn't a requirement but I like it this way.

    Vinegar based sauce on the very spicy side, slaw and a nice slice of red onion.
