Pulled Bacon Hock Sandwich with Pineapple Slaw
Smoky, tender, and just the right amount of sweet — this Pulled Bacon Hock Sandwich is comfort food with a tropical twist. Slow-cooked bacon hock is pulled apart and piled high in a soft bun, topped with a bright, crunchy pineapple slaw that cuts through the richness perfectly. Every bite balances savoury, sweet, and tangy flavours — a little Kiwi flair on a classic BBQ favourite. Ideal for weekend lunches, easy entertaining, or when you’re craving something hearty and full of flavour.
