Korean Pork Crack (Jeyeuk Bokkum)
- 3 pounds Pork butt roast, or boneless country style ribs
- 1/3 cup Korean red pepper paste (gochujang)
- 3 tablespoons finely minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons finely minced ginger or ginger paste
- 4-5 chopped shallots (about 1/3 cup)
- 2 tablespoons Tamari or low sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Seasoned soybean paste (ssamjang)
- 1 tablespoon Sherry wine
- 1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Toasted Sesame Oil
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 2-3 tablespoons Toasted sesame seeds
- 1 bunch chopped scallions
- Combine the ingredients from the Gochujahng paste through the honey in a slow cooker and mix well.
- Add the pork butt or ribs, and turn them over in the mixture until they are thoroughly covered with the sauce mixture.
- Cover, and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours.
- Shred the pork in the sauce with a pair of forks.
- Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and scallions.
- Now the fun starts!! Steam some rice and make lettuce wraps with some KPC, rice, a lettuce leaf, shredded carrots, cucumbers or bean sprouts, and kimchi. Or make a bowl of bimimbap with rice, bean sprouts, garlicky greens, mushrooms, and a fried egg on top. SO GOOD.
