- 2/3 cup gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste)
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/2 cup chicken stock
- 1/4 cup honey
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 5 sprigs thyme, stemmed
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 (4 pound) boneless pork shoulder roast, trimmed
- 1/4 cup butter, divided
- 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 8 hamburger buns, split
- 3 green onions, thinly sliced
- Combine gochujang, onion, vinegar, chicken stock, honey, brown sugar, ginger, soy sauce, mustard, garlic, cinnamon, salt, thyme, and black pepper together in a large bowl and mix well.
- Dredge pork in the gochujang sauce on all sides. Pour sauce into a slow cooker and add the pork. Spoon some of the sauce on top of the pork. Cover and cook on Low until pork roast shreds easily with a fork, about 8 hours.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Place roast in a large bowl and shred the meat with 2 forks. Pour the sauce from the slow cooker into a pot over medium-high heat. Cover and bring to a boil. Uncover; reduce heat to a simmer.
- Mix 1 tablespoon butter and flour in a small bowl; combine with the sauce in the pot and mix well. Cook until heated through and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir again.
- Spread remaining 3 tablespoons butter over insides of buns. Place on a baking sheet.
- Toast in the preheated oven until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes.
- Pour the sauce into the bowl with the shredded pork and mix. Top pork with green onions. Spoon pork over the toasted buns.
