Inspired by Momofuku chef David Chang’s Korean bo ssäm pork, these deliver crunch and succulence, all in one bite.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 (2 1/2-pound) boneless pork shoulder, trimmed
- 1 tablespoon grated peeled fresh ginger
- 2 tablespoons sherry or white wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted chicken stock (such as Swanson)
- 1 tablespoon gochujang (Korean chile paste)
- 1 1/2 teaspoons lower-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions
- 30 Boston lettuce leaves (about 2 heads)
- 1 cup thinly sliced radishes
- Lime wedges (optional)
Preparation
- Combine sugar and salt in a small bowl. Place pork in a large bowl; rub evenly with sugar mixture. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Preheat oven to 300°. Place pork on a rack set inside a roasting pan. Place pan in oven; bake 4 hours or until a thermometer registers 210°, basting occasionally with drippings. Remove from oven; let stand 30 minutes. Shred pork with 2 forks.
- Combine ginger and next 5 ingredients (through soy sauce), stirring with a whisk. Stir in onions. Reserve half of sauce. Toss shredded pork in remaining half of sauce. Divide pork evenly among lettuce leaves. Top with radishes; drizzle with reserved sauce. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
