Directions

1. Drain jackfruit from cans and rinse thoroughly. If core is still attached, remove and discard.
2. In a large bowl, combine jackfruit with brown sugar, smoked paprika, garlic powder, True Lemon Pepper, and chili powder. Mix well.
3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until translucent (about 5-minutes), then add in the seasoned jackfruit. Stir and cook until jackfruit begins to brown (about 3-4 minutes).
4. Add vegetable broth to the skillet along with 3/4 cup of the BBQ sauce. Reduce heat and simmer uncovered for about 30-minutes or until the sauce begins to thicken. While stirring, break up the jackfruit into small chunks as they soften.
5. Season with additional True Lemon Pepper and salt if desired. Serve on buns topped with coleslaw, and enjoy!
