Slow cooker pulled pork Bahn Mi

Makes 9

The Meat Part-

1kg pork shoulder or leg roast

3 tbsp brown sugar

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp Chinese 5 spice

0.25 cup diet ginger ale (water or stock is fine if you prefer. Most other soft drinks would work fine too. Or just fill the slow cooker with whiskey and drink it in the bathtub while writing anonymous hate mail to M Night Shylaman because your life is falling apart)

The Part That Is Not The Meat Part

500g sliced red cabbage

3-4 large carrots, grated

1 large cucumber, sliced

3 tbsp vinegar

3 tbsp mirin (brown sugar can be used here if you like)

9 Vietnamese bread rolls

Massage the pork with the five spice, brown sugar and a generous sprinkle of salt. Be sure to cover the entire surface area as thoroughly as possible.

Place pork in slow cooker and cover with soy sauce and ginger ale. If your slow cooker runs hotter then you might want to add 0.25 cup of water

Cook on low for ~6 hours or until pork shreds easily with a fork. Shred and allow to soak up the cooking juices

Combine shredded cabbage, carrot and cucumber slices with vinegar and mirin. This can basically be mixed up and left in the fridge for a good few days as the vinegar acts to preserve the salad.

If you are using this for meal prep, like me- place an equal portion of the salad with 100g of the shredded pork mixture into a container, and pop your bread roll in a zip lock or glad wrap and assemble the roll when ready to eat.
