Go Chiefs!
Ahem. Well. Yes, that needed to be said.
Tomorrow's Super Bowl festivities will feature pulled pork sandwiches because Kansas City. A superlative sandwich requires a superlative bun. For superlative buns, it's hard to improve on Portuguese Sweet Bread (this one compliments of Mark Sinclair.) Although Ian, bless him, continues to experiment.
These are all suited up and ready to play:
And, since Mardi Gras is drawing near, some king cake, too:

I'm packing now ! LOL . Looks delicious and I am sure your company will be thrilled. My husband and I grew up in New Orleans so I have had my share of KIng Cake and the plastic baby hidden inside....a great way to break a tooth !! The new versions of the cake are shall we say interesting !!! I bet yours will be delicious. Have fun . c
No baby in this cake, though. Nor bean. Teeth are safe.
This one is traditional in terms of filling. I did introduce one twist. Literally. This one is made of two rolls twisted together instead of a single roll.
We're looking forward to cutting into it.

on my way . Have a fun time !!
I was 3 when the Jets won their only Super Bowl! 😫. Your rolls look perfect for some tasty pulled pork sandwiches. That King cakes looks fantastic too.
Enjoy the game!
Getting there was nerve-wracking.
The rolls and the king cake both turned out very well, even if it's me that says so. We've been enjoying both.

Awesome buns and King Cake Paul. I’m sure the pulled pork was greatly enhanced by those buns.

They're sturdy enough to stand up to hefty fillings and tender enough that they don't overwhelm the sandwich. Good stuff!
The New Orleans interpretation of a king cake is essentially a cinnamon roll that doesn't get sliced into individual pieces. Instead, the ends of the roll are swung around to meet each other, forming a circle. Flavor-wise, it's right up my alley.
