Serves 6|
Hands-On Time:

Total Time:
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh ginger (from a 2-inch piece)
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
- 2 1/2 pounds boneless pork shoulder or butt, trimmed and cut in half
- 1 8.8-ounce package udon or soba noodles
- 1 bunch broccoli (about 1 pound), cut into florets
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- sliced red chilies, for serving
Directions
- In a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker, combine the hoisin, soy sauce, cornstarch, ginger, garlic, sesame oil, cloves, and ¾ cup water. Add the pork and turn to coat. Cover and cook until the pork is very tender, on low for 7 to 8 hours or on high for 5 to 6 hours (this will shorten total recipe time).
- Twenty minutes before serving, cook the noodles according to the package directions, adding the broccoli during the last 2 minutes of cooking.
- Using 2 forks, shred the meat. Add the vinegar and mix to combine. Serve the pork over the noodles with the broccoli and chilies.

FRESH PICK
Cranberries
High in vitamin C, these hard, tart berries are grown in bogs in colder regions of North America and Europe. They’re almost
always eaten cooked, as in the classic Thanksgiving relish.
