Pork Marinade

1 1/2 pounds Pork shoulder

1 cup Aged soy sauce

1/2 cup Brown sugar

4 cloves Garlic, minced

1 tablespoon Ginger, grated

1 teaspoon black pepper

Bowl Components

3 cups Cooked rice

2 cups Steamed broccoli

1 cup Carrots, julienned

1/2 cup Green onions, chopped

2 tablespoons Sesame seeds

Method

Pork Marinade Preparation

Prepare the Marinade

In a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and black pepper. Mix until the sugar is dissolved.

Marinate the Pork

Add the pork shoulder to the marinade, ensuring it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Cooking the Pork

Cook the Pork

Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Place the marinated pork shoulder in a roasting pan with a lid. Roast for 3-4 hours, or until tender and easily shredded.

Shred the Pork

Once cooked, remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes. Shred the pork using two forks and mix it with the remaining marinade in the pan.

Assembling the Bowl

Prepare the Bowl

In serving bowls, place a generous scoop of cooked rice at the bottom. Top with shredded pork, steamed broccoli, and julienned carrots.

Garnish

Sprinkle chopped green onions and sesame seeds on top of each bowl for added flavor and presentation.
