How to Make Asian Barbecue Pork

  1. Place pork (fatty side up) in your slow cooker.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Pour the mixture evenly over the pork.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the pork is incredibly tender and easily shreds with a fork. If using a different cut of meat than ribs, adjust cooking time as needed. Pork shoulder typically requires a longer cook time than ribs.
  4. Once cooked, shred the pork with two forks, discarding any large pieces of fat.
  5. Serve the shredded pork on rice, in tacos, on buns, or as a delicious topping for salads. Enjoy!
