Hawaiian Pulled Pork Sandwiches




Aloha! This is a slow cooker recipe I got off of The Food Network... what would the world be without TFN? It would be a very sad and hungry place.

Eat up and enjoy! :)

Ingriedents:
2-3 lbs of Pork Shoulder
1 Pack of Dry Teriyaki Seasoning
1 tbspn. of Paprika
1 tspn. of Pepper
1/2 cup of Chicken Broth
1/2 cup of Light Brown Sugar
1/4 cup of Soy Sauce
1 cup of Chili Sauce
1 small can of Pinneapple Juice
1 whole chopped Onion
1 tbspn. of the Oil of your choice
2 tspn. of Minced Garlic
2 tbspn. of Ginger
1 Pack of Hamburger Buns

Dry Rub:
In a medium bowl mix together...
1 Pack of dried Teriyaki Seasoning
1 Tablespoon of Paprika
1 Teaspoon of Pepper

Slow Cooker Broth:
In a medium bowl mix together...
1/2 cup of Chicken Broth
1/2 cup of Light Brown Sugar
1/4 cup of Soy Sauce
1 cup of Chili Sauce
1 small-medium can of Pinneapple Juice

On to the slow cooker...
-Add 1 whole chopped onion to the bottom of the slow cooker.
-Generously pack ALL 6 sides of your pork with the Dry Rub... smack it, flip it, and rub it down! ;) Then add, FAT SIDE UP to bed of onions in slow cooker.
-Add HALF of your slow cooker broth around your pork. Save and refrigerate the other half of this broth for your Hawaiian sauce that you will be making later.
-Cook for 8 hrs on low-heat.

Now, for your Hawaiian Sauce...
When your pork is done, in a sauce pan, add 2 tablespoons of oil, 2 teaspoons of minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of ginger and the remaining half of the slow cooker broth (that you saved in the fridge). Cook on medium heat.

While your Hawaiian sauce is heating up. Take out your pork from the slow cooker and shred meat apart on cutting board. Assemble sandwiches on hamburger buns, add your onions and drizzle your Hawaiian sauce on top.

Great sides to add are coleslaw and sweet potato fries.

Enjoy!

P.S. When you are sick of leftovers, reinvent your pork, add some diced pineapples, pizza dough, your Hawaiian sauce, mozzerella, sliced onions and make Hawaiian Pizza!
