Asian Inspired Pulled Pork Sandwiches
An Asian inspired maple sriracha pulled pork that goes great in sliders, tacos, or delicious on its own. Make ahead in your slow cooker for an easy weeknight meal.
The great thing about pork shoulder is that 1) it’s inexpensive, and 2) it’s easy to prepare since you’re slow cooking it over a long period of time. A slow cooker works great for convenience. This way the flavors concentrate and the pork gets crispy. A compromise would be to simply brown your pork shoulder in a pan right before putting it in the slow cooker. Whichever way you choose, the end result is bound to be great. Taste this sweet & spicy tender pork that stands great on its own, no bun required (though more delicious with). I also paired it with a sesame slaw for a little extra Asian flavor.
