Asian Styled Pulled Pork Recipe
As soon as summer time rolls around, I get ready to eat my weight in barbecue. There are many varieties of barbecue in the Carolinas, where I’m from: vinegar based, mustard based, and ketchup based are the major types. Each variety has its die-hard fans and each variety has its delicious points. The variety featured here, though, is one that would never be found in a local barbecue joint: Asian Pulled Pork.
The Asian flare was a nice change from the usual and I really suggest you to give this recipe a try! Plus, it is made in the crock pot so there’s no need to heat up your kitchen on these hot summer days.
