A sweet and spicy barbecue sauce with a hint of smoke and sharp cheddar transform leftover pulled pork into a delicious bread that's perfect for serving as an appetizer at a house party instead of sandwiches. Instead of pork, you can use roast beef brisket or leftover grilled chicken—it'll be just as delicious. The filling is rolled into store-bought pizza dough, and the bread is baked in the oven. When ready, simply slice it and you've got ready-made sandwiches.

Preparation:

Step 1
• Preheat oven to 200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Step 2
• On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough into a 50 x 35 cm rectangle. Working along the short side of the dough, spread the cheddar evenly over half the dough, leaving a 2.5 cm border around the edges.
  
  Culinary advice:
  
  To make it easier to roll out and shape the dough, place it in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
Step 3
• Spread the pulled pork evenly over the cheddar, then spoon 1 cup of barbecue sauce over the pork. Roll the dough into a tight log, starting with the filling side. Pinch the open ends to seal and tuck them under the log.
Step 4
• Transfer the roll to the prepared baking sheet and brush with beaten egg. Bake until golden brown, 35-40 minutes.
Step 5
• Let the bread cool for 10 minutes. Cut it in half lengthwise, then cut each half crosswise into 4 equal pieces.
Step 6
• Serve the bread warm with the remaining barbecue sauce, pickles, and coleslaw.
  
  

  Barbecue sauce

  
  In a small saucepan, combine ketchup, sugar, whiskey, chili powder, mustard powder, onion powder, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, coriander, cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 cup water. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook the barbecue sauce, stirring, until the sugar dissolves and the sauce thickens, 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
