Asian Pulled Pork Sandwiches

• 1/2 cup hoisin sauce
• 1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar
• 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 pounds boneless pork shoulder roast
• 18 French dinner rolls (about 1-3/4 ounces each), split and warmed
• Optional toppings: Shredded cabbage, julienned carrot, sliced jalapeno pepper, fresh cilantro or basil and Sriracha chili sauce

1. In a small bowl, whisk the first 7 ingredients until blended. Place roast in a 4- or 5-qt. slow cooker. Pour sauce mixture over top. Cook, covered, on low until pork is tender, 7-9 hours.
2. Remove roast; cool slightly. Skim fat from cooking juices. Coarsely shred pork with 2 forks. Return pork to slow cooker; heat through. Using tongs, serve pork on rolls, adding toppings as desired.
3. Freeze cooled meat mixture in freezer containers. To use, partially thaw in refrigerator overnight. Heat through in a saucepan, stirring occasionally; add a little broth if necessary. Serve as directed.
