Prepare the Jackfruit: Drain and rinse the Young Green Jackfruit in Brine thoroughly. Using your hands, a fork, or a potato masher, shred the jackfruit, removing any hard core pieces.
Sauté Aromatics: In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the Olive Oil over medium heat. Add the Yellow Onion-diced and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the Garlic-minced and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Cook Jackfruit: Add the shredded jackfruit to the skillet. Pour in the Vegetable Broth and cook for 5-7 minutes, allowing the jackfruit to absorb some liquid and soften further.
Prepare BBQ Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the Store-bought BBQ Sauce, Apple Cider Vinegar, Smoked Paprika, and Brown Sugar from the BBQ Sauce group.
Combine and Simmer: Pour the prepared BBQ sauce over the jackfruit in the skillet. Stir well to coat. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has thickened and the jackfruit is tender and deeply flavored.
Make Coleslaw: In a medium bowl, combine the Pre-packaged Coleslaw Mix, Vegan Mayonnaise, Apple Cider Vinegar, Granulated Sugar, Salt, and Black Pepper from the Coleslaw group. Mix until well combined. Set aside.
Assemble Sandwiches: Lightly toast the Vegan Hamburger Buns. Pile a generous amount of the BBQ jackfruit onto the bottom bun. Top with a spoonful of the prepared coleslaw and optional Pickle Slices. Place the top bun and serve immediately.
