CIDER VINEGAR MUSTARD SAUCE

2 cups prepared mustard (whatever you have on hand)

1 cup apple cider vinegar

8 tablespoons brown sugar 1 teaspoon cayenne

1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper

1 teaspoon salt or more to taste

2 teaspoons minced garlic

 

Heat all ingredients in a sauce pan over medium heat and whisk together well. Cook until sugar is dissolved and sauce begins to thicken. Serve warm or cold. The sauce will last for a few weeks in your refrigerator.
Toast hamburger buns. Divide shredded pork among bottoms of buns. Drizzle lightly with vinegar mustard sauce. Top with coleslaw recipe of your choice. We like it spicy, as opposed to sweet. Cover with tops of buns. If you want to add some more heat, we recommend Frank’s Red Hot, a vinegar

based hot sauce.
