Devon’s Twice Cooked Pork Shoulder
Ingredients
2 Lbs Pork Shoulder, cut into 2" chunks
Marinade :
1/3 Cup Sesame Oil
1/2 Cup Sriracha
1/2 Cup Soy Sauce or Tamari
1" Piece of Ginger, Minced
2 Tablespoons Brown Rice Vinegar
1 Tablespoon Fish Sauce (optional, but delicious)
1 tablespoon Red Pepper Flakes
Preparation
Mix all marinade ingredients, and combine with meat in a zip lock bag. Let marinate for at least 6 hours. Overnight is even better (24 hours+ is the pinnacle of goodness).
Place the meat in an oven safe dish, pour all the marinade over it. It helps to place fattier sides facing down, so they render off in the liquid faster. Cover with a tight fitting lid or tin foil. Cook at 300°F for 3-4 hours or more. The longer it cooks the more tender it gets!
When it falls apart upon picking up, drain liquid, and reserve. Heat a pan on the stove, using a little bit of the liquid as oil. Lightly shred or chop the meat, and then fry quickly in pan, adding veggies or other ingredients as desired. Scallions, sesame seeds, greens, or whatever you else you crave!
