Mac & Cheese Pulled Pork Sandwich

The Mac & Cheese Pulled Pork Sandwich is everything comfort food should be: indulgent, messy, and full of bold, satisfying flavors. This over-the-top sandwich combines smoky, saucy pulled pork with creamy, gooey mac and cheese, all tucked inside a buttery toasted brioche bun. It’s the kind of meal that turns heads, sparks cravings, and makes you want to savor every single bite.

At the heart of the sandwich is rich BBQ pulled pork—either slow-cooked from scratch or shortcut with store-bought. It’s slathered in your favorite sauce and gently heated to intensify the flavors. The mac and cheese layer is made from scratch, using a sharp cheddar cheese sauce that perfectly coats tender elbow macaroni, creating that signature creamy bite.

The contrast in textures—soft noodles, smoky meat, crispy onions, and a pillowy bun—makes each mouthful unforgettable. The crispy fried onions add just the right crunch, while an extra drizzle of BBQ sauce adds depth and tang. It’s a bold fusion of two comfort food staples, united in sandwich form for a truly indulgent experience.
