Ingredients
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ¼ cup hoisin sauce
- ¼ cup brown sugar
- 2 Tablespoons Sriracha sauce
- 1 Tablespoon sesame oil
- 1" chunk ginger, minced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 5 lb pork loin
Instructions
- Add the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, sriracha sauce, sesame oil, ginger and garlic to a greased slow cooker and give everything a good stir.
- Trim any extra fat off the pork loin, then cut it against the grain into 3 smaller pieces.
- Add the pork to the slow cooker with sauce, turning to coat. Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours until the meat is tender and shreds easily. (If possible, turn the pork over halfway through the cooking time.)
- Once the pork has cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove it from the slow cooker and place it on a plate. Then, use 2 forks to shred the meat.
- Next, return the Asian shredded pork to the slow cooker and give everything a stir to combine the juices with the meat. Allow the shredded meat to simmer on low in the juices for 30 minutes prior to serving.
