Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
  • Drain and rinse the jackfruit, then cut the jackfruit into smaller pieces, removing the core.
  • Add the olive oil, onions, garlic, salt, and pepper to a large frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté until the onions are tender and become translucent.
  • Add the jackfruit, chili powder, paprika, cumin, liquid smoke, salt, pepper, and liquid smoke, and stir.
  • Add the vegetable stock, cover, and cook another 10-15 minutes, until the jackfruit is soft enough that it can be mashed.
  • Mash the jackfruit with potato masher or a couple of forks, until it looks pulled or shredded.
  • Spread an even layer of pulled jackfruit across a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 25 minutes.
  • Remove from oven and pour over the vegan BBQ sauce and stir to combine.
  • Place back in the oven for 10 more minutes.
  • Build your burger, top with dressings of your choice.
  • Enjoy!
