Ultimate Pulled Pork Schnitzel Sandwich

I promised my husband I would make pork schnitzel sandwiches tonight (one of his favourite meals) but I felt like changing it up a little this time. I decided to be completely crazy and do pork two ways in one sandwich.

To go along with the pork schnitzels I also prepared some of my Cream Soda Pulled Pork. Alot of people like to cook their pulled pork in Root Beer but I've always prefered the subtle taste left by the Cream Soda.

I prepared some cajun mayo by mixing some regular mayo with Clubhouse Cajun Seasoning and topped my sandwiches with lettuce and red onions but you could use whatever condiments and toppings you prefer.

This is the perfect sandwich for pork lovers and it is definitely not a light meal!

Ultimate Pulled Pork Schnitzel Sandwich

Prep Time: 15 min         Cooking Time: 1hr30min         Total Time: 1hr45min

Yield: 4 Sandwiches

Ingredients

1 x Pork Loin (approx. 1.5lbs)

2 x Eggs

1/4 cup Milk

1/2 cup Flour

1/2 cup Bread Crumbs

1 can Cream Soda

1 tsp Salt

1 tsp Pepper

1 tbsp Onion Powder

1/4 cup BBQ Sauce

4 x Triple Decker Buns (or 6 regular hamburger buns)

Lettuce

Red Onion

Cajun Mayo

Oil for Frying

​

Instructions

  • Take the pork loin and cut four slices each 1/4 inch thick. These will be for your schnitzels.

  • Put the remainder of the loin in a pot with the cream soda. 

  • Add water to cover and season with salt, pepper and onion powder.

  • Boil gently till pork pulls apart easily with a fork (about 1hr30min).

  • While the pulled pork is cooking prepare your schnitzels.

  • Heat your oil for frying the schnitzels. You can use a deep fryer or a pot on the stove with about 1/2 an inch of oil

  • Pound out each piece with a meat tenderizer.

  • Prepare a breading station with one container of flour, one of the eggs and milk whisked together and one of bread crumbs.

  • Coat the pork pieces first with flour, then the egg mixture and finally the bread crumbs.

  • When pork loin is finished cooking drain the pot and shred the meat using two forks.

  • Add your favourite BBQ sauce to the pulled pork, stir and continue heating on low.

  • Fry your schnitzels in the hot oil until golden brown. They will cook very quickly as the meat is so thin.

  • Remove from oil and set on plate with paper towel to absorb the excess grease.

  • For the buns you will need three pieces per sandwich. You can use triple decker buns or if your grocery store does not carry them you can just use six regular buns.

  • Toast your buns for a few minutes in the oven.

  • Spread cajun mayo on the bottom bun then place pork schnitzel on top.

  • Add lettuce, the middle bun, pulled pork, red onion and the top bun.

  • Enjoy!
