With left over roast pork, I always make up some chicken or vegie stock, put slices in container and cover with stock, and freeze. Whenever I want roast meat for school lunches etc, I just microwave it. Not to mention a quick roast meal, I just add fresh vegies, or salad.
Shred up leftover pork, dress with a little salt, pepper, oil and vinegar and pop in a crusty roll for the ultimate US style pulled pork sandwich. Try it with some hot mustard, crispy lettuce and juicy tomato.
Mince leftover pork and mix with cold mashed potato, a few chopped herbs and mix together with an egg. Shape into little cakes, flatten down with your hand to make a rissoles, and fry gently in a non-stick pan until hot through.
Chop up leftover pork, mix with a little tomato sauce, ground cumin, and chilli and spread out in a baking dish. Top with mashed potato and a sprinkle of grated cheese, then bake in a hot oven til hot through for a fantastic chilli pork shepherd’s pie.

One of the best cooking tips I ever received, was from a co-worker and friend. He told me to get a pork roast, place it in the crockpot, and pour a jar of pickled pepperoncinis (juice and all) over the roast. Cook until the meat falls apart. He said to serve it with warm tortillas. You could serve with rolls. Good eating!
Pork Barbecue Sandwiches
Use leftover pork tenderloin for what we call a 'Pork Barbecue'. Pull pieces of cooked pork into 'strings' (Keeping length about 2 to 2 1/2 inches). Pile into a casserole dish with a tablespoon of water in the bottom. Pour your favourite barbecue sauce over top, mixing pork around to coat nicely. Heat in oven at 250 degrees F till warmed and steam comes off when the top removed. Serve on buns with regular assortment of condiments you would use for a hamburger. Yummy!

RE: Using Leftover Pork Roast
Take your leftovers, toss 'em in the crockpot with a jar of salsa, and shred it up for pulled pork sandwiches. Cook on Low for 8 hours, or High for four.
You can also use a homemade BBQ sauce instead of the salsa; 1 cup ketchup, 1/4 cup sweet mustard, and 1/8 cup of honey or brown sugar. (01/14/2005)
