Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- Line a cookie sheet with foil and spray with neutral cooking spray, such as avocado oil.
- Cut the loaf of Hawaiian rolls in half, leaving the top and bottom intact to simulate a large bun.

- Evenly spread the sauced pulled pork on your bottom buns.
- Top the pulled pork with 6 slices of cheese.
- Place the top of the rolls back on top.

Notes
The tops of the rolls will brown quickly, ensure to cover with foil for the first 15 minutes.
