asian pulled pork

A variation on the usual pulled pork I made for a friend's bridal shower.

asian pulled pork
makes 12 servings

1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
3 tbsp ketchup or sriracha sauce
3 tbsp rice vinegar
1/4 cup honey
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 tbsp peeled and grated fresh ginger
2 tsp dark sesame oil
1 1/2 tsp Chinese five-spice powder
 4 lbs boneless butt pork roast, trim off fat and cut into 2 in pieces

1 bunch green onions
1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped
12 Chinese-style steamed buns

Add everything but the meat to the slow cooker and whisk to combine. Add the pork and toss to coat. Cover and cook the meat on low for 8 hours.

When the pork is done, remove it from the slow cooker with a slotted spoon and shred the pork.

Return the meat to the pot, stir it into the remaining sauce.

Serve meat on top of buns with sliced green onions and/or cilantro.
