FAQ
Can I use a different cut of pork?
Yes, you can use pork loin or pork tenderloin, but keep in mind that these cuts are leaner and may not be as tender as pork shoulder or butt. Adjust the cooking time accordingly to prevent drying out the meat.
Can I make this recipe ahead of time?
Absolutely! This recipe is perfect for meal prep. You can prepare the pork and marinade the night before and store it in the fridge. In the morning, simply transfer everything to the slow cooker and let it cook while you go about your day.
What if I don’t have a slow cooker?
If you don’t have a slow cooker, you can make this recipe in a Dutch oven. Follow the same steps, but cook the pork in a 300°F oven for 3-4 hours, or until tender.
How can I make this dish healthier?
To reduce the sugar content, you can use a sugar substitute like Stevia or reduce the amount of brown sugar. Also, opting for low-sodium soy sauce can help reduce the overall sodium content.
