  • Cooking beef and pork together adds to the unique flavor of these barbecued sandwiches. But if you prefer, this recipe may also be prepared using all beef or all pork.
  • You can use whatever bread you like for these hearty sandwiches. Italian bread, hot dog buns and pita bread all make a nice change from hamburger buns. For an added twist, top each sandwich with a slice of Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese.
