Smoked Pulled Pork Lettuce Wraps with Asian Dipping Sauce

soy sauce

balsamic vinegar

brown sugar

green onion

rosemary (about 4-6 inches, the whole sprig, no need to break apart

garlic

ginger

honey

slurry (a mix of

pulled pork (approximately 1 lb)

carrots (julienned)

purple cabbage (shredded

Boston (or "Butter" lettuce, leaves separated)

onions

cilantro (chopped (for topping))

Whisk all the sauce ingredients together in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Then strain after 12 minutes of reducing. Add back into the saucepan over heat.

In a separate small sealed container add 1 tablespoon of water with 1 tablespoon cornstarch or flour. Add the "slurry" to the saucepan with the strained sauce. Whisk to combine. Let continue simmering for 8-10 minutes until the sauce has thickened. Set aside.

For the Sauce:

In a large skillet heat up the pork on medium heat until warmed. Add 2-4 tablespoons of the sauce to the meat, as desired. Save the remaining sauce for topping your wraps. Remove from heat.

Assemble lettuce wraps: Scoop pork mixture into lettuce leaves, and top with your vegetables, onions, and cilantro. Drizzle with more reserved sauce as desired.

For the Wraps:

Depending on how you&#x27;re serving your pulled pork, you may opt to skip the rub entirely and just season the roast with salt and pepper. Choose whichever rub fits your plans best!
