Hawaiian Pork Sliders Recipe Belly Full

Steps:

• Mix seasoned salt, pepper, oregano, cumin, and chili powder together in a small bowl. Season pork on all sides with spice mix, cover with 1/2 cup of KING'S HAWAIIAN Smoked Bacon BBQ Sauce and place in medium size pan. Add broth, bay leaves and peppercorns. Broth should cover about 1/2 of pork. Cover with foil and bake 3 1/2 hours at 350°F. In a bowl mix all ingredients for Hawaiian Slaw, set aside. At 3 1/2 hours remove pork and shred. Add remaining KING'S HAWAIIAN Smoked Bacon BBQ Sauce, set aside. Toast KING'S HAWAIIAN Rolls, then build sandwich pork first then slaw.

Steps:

• For the roasted pork: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Season the pork loin on all sides with the salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl, combine the coconut milk and BBQ sauce. Set aside.
• In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, add the canola oil and heat until the oil just starts to smoke. Add the pork to the skillet fat-side down. Sear on all sides until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Set the pork aside on a plate.
• Stir in the onions and cook until softened and browned, about 2 minutes. Add the diced pineapple, then place the seared pork on top of the onions and pineapple. Pour some of the BBQ mixture over the pork, coating the top, then pour the rest around the skillet, stirring it into the onion-pineapple mixture as much as possible. Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the pork and onions are deeply caramelized, and the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145 degrees F, 35 to 40 minutes. Let rest 10 to 15 minutes.
• For the slaw: Combine the napa and red cabbage together in a bowl. Add the salt and toss. Stir in the Spicy Mayo, adding more if desired, to evenly coat the cabbage. Set aside.
• To assemble: Slice the pork into thin rounds, then cut the rounds in half to make half-moons. Season the pork slices with salt. Place a heaping tablespoon of the pineapple and onions on top of each bottom bun, followed by 2 to 3 half-moon slices of pork, then a heaping tablespoon of the slaw. Place the top buns over the slaw on each. Serve immediately.
• Combine the mayonnaise, coconut milk, sriracha and lime juice in a bowl and stir together until smooth. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use, up to a week.

Steps:

• To make the marinade, put the onion, gochujang, soy sauce, garlic, sugar, sake, mirin, and sesame oil in a bowl and mix well to combine. Add the pork and turn to coat the meat. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
• The next day, set a large sauté pan over medium heat. Once it's hot, add the pork, working in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan and leaving any liquid in the bowl. Cook, stirring occasionally and flipping the meat, until lightly caramelized and golden brown on both sides, about 10 minutes. (If you overcrowd the pan, the meat will steam instead of sear.) Transfer to a platter.
• When the meat is cooked, open the buns, butter the interiors, and toast them until they are a light golden brown.
• To serve, spread both cut sides of each bun with a healthy smear of mayo and pile the spicy pork generously on the bottoms of the buns. Top with the sliced cucumbers. Serve immediately.
• Cooks' Note:
• The pork belly must be marinated overnight. You can also grill the pork on an outdoor grill over a high flame. The sugars in the marinade will char and caramelize, giving you a more interesting texture and flavor, but be careful not to burn the pork.
