Measure the infused ingredient
Stir the measured oil in off the heat. See the cannabis olive oil guide and the THC potency calculator for your own infusion.
Dose deliberately: potency depends on the strength and amount of your infusion. Calculate the complete batch, divide evenly, label infused food clearly and keep it away from children and pets.

Ingredients
For the skillet
For serving
Use canned young green jackfruit in water or brine. Drain and dry it before cooking.
FROM PREP TO FINISH
Make it, step by step
Drain and pull apart the jackfruit
Pat the jackfruit dry. Trim away any hard core pieces, then pull larger pieces apart with your fingers.
Season, soften and shred
Heat plain olive oil in a wide skillet over medium heat. Cook onion for 5 minutes, then add garlic, paprika, cumin and pepper and cook 30 seconds.
Add jackfruit and 1/4 cup water. Cover and cook 8 minutes, then mash and shred the pieces with a wooden spoon or potato masher.
Reduce the barbecue sauce
Stir in barbecue sauce and vinegar. Cook uncovered 8 to 10 minutes, until glossy and thick enough to cling to the jackfruit.
Finish off the heat and fill the buns
Remove from the heat and stir in the measured infused olive oil very thoroughly. Divide the filling among 6 buns and top with slaw and pickles.
Questions about Canna BBQ Pulled Jackfruit
Does canned jackfruit taste like meat?
No. It has a mild flavor and pulled texture that works well with barbecue sauce, but it still tastes like jackfruit.
Can I make this ahead?
Yes. The filling improves after a night in the refrigerator and reheats well.
Can I use cannabis coconut oil instead?
Yes, as long as its flavor works with your barbecue sauce and the amount is based on your calculated batch strength.
