Ingredients

1 ½ pounds pork shoulder

¼ cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons sesame oil

2 tablespoons gochujang

1 tablespoon honey

4 cloves garlic minced

1 tablespoon ginger grated

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 stalk green onion chopped

1 tablespoon sesame seeds


Directions

1.

In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, gochujang, honey, garlic, ginger, rice vinegar, and black pepper to make the marinade.

2.

Add the pork shoulder to the marinade and ensure it is evenly coated. Let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

3.

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove pork from marinade, reserving marinade for basting.

4.

Grill the pork, basting occasionally with reserved marinade, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F and it’s nicely charred, about 15-20 minutes per side.

5.

Let the pork rest for 5 minutes before thinly slicing. Garnish with chopped green onion and sesame seeds before serving.
