• Prepare the Caja China according to manufacturer's directions. Cook until the pork reaches 190 degrees F, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Remove the pork, place in a baking pan, tent with foil and let the pork rest for 20 minutes. Reserve the juices for the BBQ sauce.
• For the Korean BBQ sauce: Heat the oil in a medium high-sided saute pan. Add the shallots and cook until soft. Whisk in the reserved juices from the pork, the chicken stock, ketchup, gochujang, honey, soy sauce and five-spice powder and cook until slightly reduced. Remove from the heat, add the vinegar and sesame oil.

Dress with a drizzle of spicy sriracha aioli and a drizzle of the Korean inspired BBQ sauce reduction.

Steps:

• Combine pork, beef broth, mushrooms, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce, honey, garlic, sesame oil, ginger, red pepper, and Chinese five-spice powder in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Close and lock the lid.
• Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 35 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Let sit for 15 minutes before releasing pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove the pork using a slotted spoon and place in a separate bowl. Set aside.
• Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl and add to the pressure cooker. Select Saute function. Bring to a boil and cook until sauce has thickened, about 3 minutes. Select Warm function.
• Shred the pork using 2 forks to pull apart; mix with sauce. Top with green onions and serve.

Steps:

• Assemble the spice rub for the pork: In a dry, small skillet over medium-low heat, toast coriander, cumin and peppercorns until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spice grinder or mortar and pestle, grind toasted spices into a fine powder. Transfer to a bowl and mix with salt, mustard powder, chile powder and sugar.
• If your roast is tied up, untie it. Massage meat generously with spice rub. If you have time, let meat rest for an hour or two at room temperature, or refrigerate for several hours or overnight.
• Heat oven to 300 degrees. Place pork in a baking pan and roast for 3 to 4 hours or until meat is pull-apart tender and internal temperature reads 200 degrees on a meat thermometer. Let meat cool for at least 30 minutes before pulling it apart and shredding with your hands or two forks. (This works best when the meat is warm but not hot.)
• Prepare the barbecue sauce: Combine ingredients in a medium pot. Simmer over medium-low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce has deepened in color. Season with more hot sauce if you like. Add two-thirds of the sauce to meat and toss to coat, adding more sauce as needed. (Any leftover sauce will keep for at least 2 weeks in the refrigerator.)
• Make the slaw: Combine cabbage, onion and jalapeño in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Add dressing to cabbage and toss well.
• Serve pulled pork with slaw, buns and hot sauce on the side, letting people assemble their own sandwiches.

Steps:

• Make the Tri-Color Asian Slaw: Put all ingredients in a bowl and toss well. Let the slaw sit at least 15 minutes before serving.
• Make the sliders: Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• Put the pork, soy sauce, red onion, and ginger in a large bowl and stir together to incorporate. Form 8 patties, using 3 to 4 tablespoons of pork mixture in each one and shaping them 1/2-inch thick. Be sure not to overwork or overhandle the mixture.
• Grill the burgers over direct heat, turning once, until fully cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
• Toward the end of the sliders' grilling time, grill the buns: Slice them in half if necessary, then grill the cut sides until lightly marked and lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
• Let the sliders rest on a platter or cutting board for 5 minutes after grilling, then set 1 slider in each bun and top with Tri-Color Asian Slaw. Serve.

Steps:

• Add the pork shoulder, pineapple and jalapenos to a slow cooker on low heat. Add just enough cola to cover the pork. Add a hefty pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook for 8 hours and then shred the pork with two forks.
• Invite guests to make their own pulled pork al pastor sliders! Set out bowls of sliced pickles and coleslaw so partygoers can choose their toppings.
