Didn't like the smell... are you PG???? No JK.
Wow after looking up the Banh Mi sandwich (I did not misspell, look it up), it doesn't sound like a Slow Cooker recipe at all.
However, I have just about everything here to make it the regular way, so perhaps I might.
What a bummer though. It's always disappointing when things don't work out. Especially when you have to smell it in your house!
Well now I found one online and we will have it tomorrow. I hope. Here it is. At least the one we will try. If anyone has a suggestion or instruction please let us know before we shop tomorrow.

4 servings.Ingredients
Slaw:
•1/2 cup water
•1/4 cup sugar
•1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
•1/2 cup julienned carrot
•1/2 cup julienned daikon radish
•Kosher salt
Seasoned Pork:
•1 teaspoon vegetable oil
•1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
•6 ounces ground pork
•1 tablespoon roast pork seasoning mix, available in Asian markets
•Pinch garlic powder
•Pinch ground black pepper
Sandwiches:
•4 (10-inch) baguettes
•Mayonnaise, as needed
•8 thin slices Vietnamese-style pork roll (cha lua), or bologna
•8 slices Vietnamese-style salami, or ham or turkey
•4 teaspoons soy sauce
•1/2 cup fresh cilantro sprigs
•1/4 medium English cucumber, cut lengthwise into 4 slices
•Freshly ground black pepper
•Asian-style chili oil, to taste, optional
Directions
Make the slaw: In a small saucepan, combine the water, sugar, and vinegar and bring to a boil. Transfer the vinegar mixture to a bowl and cool. Add the carrot and daikon, mix well, and season with salt. Set aside to marinate for 30 minutes or store in the refrigerator up to overnight.
Meanwhile, make the seasoned pork: Heat the oil in small nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until soft. Add the pork, seasoning, garlic, and pepper and cook, stirring, until just cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the heat and set aside covered with foil to keep warm.
Make the sandwiches: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Slice the baguettes open lengthwise, and slather the insides with mayonnaise. Arrange the baguettes on a baking sheet and bake until hot and crusty about 5 minutes. Remove the baguettes from the oven and immediately fill each with some of the seasoned pork. In each sandwich, arrange 2 slices each of the pork roll and salami, 1 teaspoon soy sauce, 1/2 tablespoon cilantro, 1 slice cucumber, ground pepper, and chili oil, if using. Serve immediately with the slaw on the side.
