This BBQ Jackfruit looks and tastes like pulled-pork. It's a delicious, tender and juicy meat substitute that even meat lovers will enjoy.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
Drain and rinse the jackfruit.
Heat large non-stick skillet and add onion, sauteing until softened.
Add minced garlic and drained, rinsed jackfruit to skillet and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes. Stir occasionally, breaking up the jackfruit as it softens.
Using a potato masher or wooden spoon, mash-up and break apart the jackfruit until it starts looking like pulled-meat.
Add 1-2 cups BBQ sauce to the jackfruit mixture and continue cooking another 10 minutes.
Place parchment paper or a silicone baking sheet on a cookie sheet. Spread the BBQ jackfruit evenly across the pan. Bake for 15 minutes.
Add a bit more sauce and continue to bake for another 10-15 minutes until nicely browned.
Serve on a bun for a tasty BBQ sandwich with more sauce for dipping if desired.
For 2 servings:
1 can jackfruit
1 medium onion
2 cloves garlic
1/2 bottle oil-free BBQ sauce
