"Shouk is a fast-casual D.C. shop specializing in Middle Eastern street food. Recently, they introduced the BBQ Jack, a plant-based barbecue sandwich made with brined, shredded jackfruit, a seared, caramelized barbecue sauce, and fried shallots, designed to mimic pulled pork. The sandwich also includes coleslaw that resembles sweet and sour braised cabbage common in Ashkenazi cooking. The BBQ Jack is available at Shouk’s shops in Mt. Vernon Triangle and Union Market." - Gabe Hiatt
