Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. pork shoulder or butt, trimmed of excess fat
  • 1 cup Korean BBQ sauce
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 4-6 hamburger buns
  • 1 cup kimchi, drained and chopped
  • Sliced green onions and sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the Korean BBQ sauce, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger until well combined.
  3. Season the pork shoulder or butt with salt and pepper on all sides. Place the pork in a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven, and pour the Korean BBQ sauce mixture over the top.
  4. Cover the pot with a lid and place it in the oven. Cook for 3-4 hours, or until the pork is tender and falls apart easily with a fork.

  6. Toast the hamburger buns in a toaster or on a grill until lightly golden. Divide the pulled pork evenly among the buns, and top each sandwich with chopped kimchi, sliced green onions, and sesame seeds.
  7. Serve hot and enjoy!
