  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper freshly ground
  • 1 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1 bunch Broccoli Rabe trimmed
  • 2 tablespoon Olive Oil

  6. 6. Once the pork is done, shred it using two forks.
  7. 7. Assemble the sandwiches: Place shredded pork on the bottom half of each roll, top with sautéed broccoli rabe, and add slices of sharp provolone. Close the sandwiches with the top half of the rolls.
