The jackfruit barbeque sandwiches recipe we are featuring is super easy, and we discovered it while shopping at Trader Joe&#8217;s.\u00a0 We always love to sample what they are making, and we usually end up purchasing the ingredients and making it at home.\u00a0 It is great because Little Miss gives it a try and usually gives it a thumbs up. Their easy recipes are an easy way to prepare a quick family dinner.\u00a0 The last time we went to TJ&#8217;s,\u00a0 they had the slow cooker out and had jackfruit with barbeque sauce.\u00a0 You might think what is jackfruit?\u00a0 Well, it is a fruit. I have eaten a lot of fresh jackfruit when traveling in Southeast Asia and have always been a fan.\u00a0 Recently, I learned that when cooked, it sort of has a meat-like texture.\u00a0 Add some barbeque sauce, and you really feel as if\u00a0 you are having a pulled pork sandwich.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<h2>Jackfruit Barbeque Sandwiches<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-39641\" src=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_1312-e1533832964427.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_1312-e1533832964427.jpg 480w, http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_1312-e1533832964427-242x323.jpg 242w, http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_1312-e1533832964427-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I picked up these cans of jackfruit at Trader Joe&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-39642\" src=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_1314-e1533832948352.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"480\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_1314-e1533832948352.jpg 480w, http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_1314-e1533832948352-242x323.jpg 242w, http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/IMG_1314-e1533832948352-300x400.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>This is the easiest meal ever.\u00a0 Drain three cans of jackfruit, and add it to a slow cooker along with a full jar of barbeque sauce.\u00a0 Set the slow cooker on high for five hours, and then shred the fruit.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-39644\" src=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Sandwich.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"427\" height=\"640\" srcset=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Sandwich.jpg 427w, http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Sandwich-216x323.jpg 216w, http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Sandwich-300x450.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 427px) 100vw, 427px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Serve it on buns, if you would like, and voila, an easy meal!\u00a0 The following day I added this to a salad and tossed in some blue cheese\u00a0and other veggies, and it was delish.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-39643\" src=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Sandwich-with-words.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"427\" height=\"532\" srcset=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Sandwich-with-words.jpg 427w, http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Sandwich-with-words-259x323.jpg 259w, http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Sandwich-with-words-300x374.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 427px) 100vw, 427px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Serve It With Some Sides<\/h2>\n<p>If you want to keep the meal super easy, add some chips as a side to these jackfruit barbeque sandwiches and serve ice cream for dessert.\u00a0 If you want to make it a little more elaborate, these jackfruit sandwiches would be go great with this <a href=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/2017\/04\/20\/asparagus-potato-salad-recipe\/\">potato salad<\/a>, and these <a href=\"http:\/\/the2seasons.com\/2011\/05\/20\/orange-brownies-recipe\/\">orange brownies<\/a> for dessert.\u00a0 If you are looking for a meat alternative, this is one to try.<\/p>\n<p>Cheers!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy Friday everyone!\u00a0 I rarely get on here for recipe day, but Mom is living without a kitchen for a few more weeks.\u00a0 She asked me to take control of today&#8217;s post, and we think you will like it.
