Oven Slow Cooked Korean Style Pulled Pork

Recipe
Prep Time 30 minutes
Cook Time 3 hours
Total Time 3 hours 30 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Cut of Pork Loin 2-3 lb
  • 2 Tbsp. Peanut Oil
  • 1/2 Cup Chicken Broth
  • BBQ Sauce
  • 2 Tsp. Korean Red Chilli Paste
  • 4 Tbsp. Cranberry/Blackberry Preserve This was a failed preserve I made that has now manifested into the perfect sweetener base for my BBQ sauces. The Cranberry is the perfect tangy mix that I need, which balances with the right amount of sugar the rest of the preserve provides for the sauce. If you don't have this,
  • use the BBQ Pork Belly Marinade from my Pork Belly Tacos.
  • It's not the same exact flavor profile but it'll get the job done. You don't need as much Rice Wine.
  • 4 Tbsp. Korean Spicy Pork BBQ Sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
  • 2 Tbsp. Rice Wine

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 300F
  2. Mix all of your sauce ingredients in a mixing bowl.  Put your peanut oil into a cast iron skillet or dutch oven. Heat it until it's near smoking. Then add your pork loin. Brown it on all sides. Then add your chicken broth, reduce slightly (maybe 1 minute).
  3. Cover your skillet with aluminium foil. Place in the preheated oven and cook for 3-4 hours covered. At the 3 1/2 hour mark, remove the cover, begin pulling apart the pork, and add your sauce. Now cook uncovered for the last half hour. This will help the sauce develop a rich flavor with the pork.
  4. Enjoy!
