Gochujang Glazed Pork

What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Time To Eat: Gochujang Glazed Pork! I like it when fellow bloggers share success stories about recipes they’ve used. It’s the best kind of testimonial for good eating, in my opinion. Judy, of Cooking With Aunt Juju*, also knows the value of letting the slow cooker do most of the work. Plus, it makes the house smell ah-mazing! The only difference I made was substituting pork loin for the beef stew meat. But you know what they say, “Two heads are better than one.” Thanks Judy for another great home-cooked meal.

GOCHUJANG GLAZED PORK

Ingredients:

2 pounds pork loin, cubed

4 scallions, sliced and separated

4 garlic cloves, minced

1/2 cup cola

3 tablespoons gochujang

3 tablespoons soy sauce

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil

2 teaspoons rice vinegar

Green onions, for garnish

Instructions:

Combine cubed pork loin, scallions, and minced garlic in an 8-quart crockpot. Combine cola, gochujang, soy sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Whisk well. Pour over meat; coat well. Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 8 hours. Stir well; remove pork loin cubes to a platter. Gently shred the chunks. Pour the remaining sauce into a skillet and simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes, or until thickened. Add the rice vinegar and platter of shredded pork. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the meat is coated and sauce turns thick and glossy. Transfer to plates; garnish with green onion snips and toasted sesame seeds, as desired. Serve with steamed rice.
