Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

  • 1 (3 pound) boneless pork shoulder roast, trimmed

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil

  • 1 cup finely chopped onion

  • 1 cup teriyaki sauce, divided

  • ½ cup unsweetened pineapple juice

  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 8 whole wheat hamburger buns, split

  • 1 (20 ounce) can sliced pineapple, drained

Directions

  1. In a large skillet, brown roast in oil over medium-high heat. Cut in half; place in a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add the onion, 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce and pineapple juice. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or until meat is tender.

  2. Remove roast; set aside. In a small bowl, combine the flour and remaining teriyaki sauce until smooth; stir into cooking juices. Cover and cook on high for 30-40 minutes or until thickened. Shred meat with two forks; return to the slow cooker and heat through. Spoon 1/2 cup onto each bun; top with a slice of pineapple.
