Whisk the brown sugar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, cayenne pepper, chili powder in a bowl.
Sprinkle the seasoning over the jackfruit and toss to coat it.
Place the olive oil into a skillet, heat it over medium-high heat, and add the jack fruit once it is hot.
Cook the seasoned jackfruit for 2-3 minutes until the jackfruit develops a slightly browned color.
Add the bbq sauce, lemon juice, and water, place the lid on the pot, and cook for 20 minutes, periodically stirring.
Use two forks to shred the jackfruit, cover the pot and cook it for an additional 15 minutes.
