Let's Get Started
- Rub the pork shoulder with the Creole seasoning and minced garlic. Let it marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight.
- Preheat your oven to 275°F. Place the pork in a roasting pan and cook for about 4 hours, or until it is tender and can be easily pulled apart with a fork.
- While the pork is cooking, prepare the spicy mayo by mixing the mayonnaise and hot sauce together. Set aside.
- Once the pork is done, let it rest for a few minutes before pulling it apart with a fork.
- Slice the French bread in half lengthwise. Spread the spicy mayo on both sides of the bread.
- Layer the pulled pork, shredded cabbage, and sliced pickles on the bread. Close the sandwich and cut into individual servings.
- Serve the Cochon de Lait Po' Boy warm, with extra napkins on the side.
