Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Slow Cooker Teriyaki Pulled Pork.
Step 1
To create a delicious teriyaki pork roast, start by grabbing a medium saucepan and heating it over medium heat.
Step 2
In this pan, combine soy sauce, chicken broth, pineapple juice, brown sugar, dry sherry, honey, minced garlic, sesame oil, minced ginger, and a pinch of red pepper flakes.
Step 3
Give it a good stir to blend all those wonderful flavors together.
Step 4
Next, in a small bowl, whisk together some cold water and cornstarch until you have a smooth slurry.
Step 5
Pour this mixture into the saucepan, stirring continuously to ensure itβs well incorporated.
Step 6
Bring the sauce to a gentle boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer for about 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally until it thickens just a bit.
Step 7
Once itβs ready, take the sauce off the heat and set it aside.
Step 8
Now, itβs time to prepare the star of the show: the pork roast.
Step 9
Place it in your slow cooker and generously pour the teriyaki sauce over the top, making sure the pork is nicely coated.
Step 10
Cover the slow cooker and let it work its magic on low heat for 6 to 8 hours, or until the pork is so tender that it practically falls apart at the touch of a fork.
Step 11
When the cooking time is up, carefully remove the pork from the slow cooker and let it rest for about 5 minutes.
Step 12
Then, using two forks, shred the pork into bite-sized pieces.
Step 13
Return the shredded pork to the slow cooker, mixing it well with the flavorful sauce.
Step 14
Allow it to warm up for another 5 minutes before serving.
Step 15
For a delightful finishing touch, sprinkle some sesame seeds on top if you like.
