Adobo Magic and Slow Cooker Prep

Kickstart the culinary adventure by generously rubbing 2 tablespoons of Adobo seasoning onto the pork shoulder roast. Adobo seasoning, a versatile spice blend with garlic, onion, oregano, black pepper, and additional spices, serves as the flavor catalyst. It sets the stage for the sweet and tangy notes that follow, enhancing the pork's taste.

Set aside the Adobo-seasoned pork and prepare the slow cooker. Grease the bottom with cooking oil and place the pork roast, ensuring an essential step for preventing sticking, enhancing flavor, and facilitating even cooking.

Add Ginger Ale

Pour two cans of ginger ale over the Adobo-seasoned pork. The ginger ale infuses the pork with subtle sweetness and a zing that promises tender, juicy Hawaiian BBQ Pork Sliders. The ginger ale acts as a tenderizing bath, ensuring each bite is a succulent delight.

Enter the Brown Sugar

Add brown sugar to your pork roast. The brown sugar will merge with the Adobo seasoning and ginger ale, creating a sweet and spicy balance. The coating caramelizes during slow cooking, forming a delicious crust that seals in moisture, transforming the pork into a tender masterpiece.

Tropical Flavor Infusion

Add a tropical touch with sweet crushed pineapple, joining forces with Adobo, brown sugar, and ginger ale. Place the lid on the slow cooker, set it to low, and let the magic unfold over the next 7 hours. Slow cooking allows the pork to absorb flavors leisurely, reaching peak tenderness.

7 Hours Later

Open the lid to unveil the magic—a deliciously tenderized pork ready for the next step. Transfer pork to a large mixing bowl, pull it apart with two forks, and watch the delicate fibers separate.

Elevate the sweetness and tropical vibes with more crushed pineapple. Sprinkle additional brown sugar for that extra touch of sweetness. Feeling adventurous? Add BBQ sauce for the ultimate taste bud tango.

Serve

Put pulled pork on King's Hawaiian Sweet Hamburger Buns or Mini Sub Rolls. Slice each bun, keeping one side intact to create a pocket for the pork. Scoop a generous amount onto the bottom half.

Serve with various condiments and toppings so your loved ones can choose. Or pair with island-inspired sides like pineapple salsa, mango guacamole, or coconut rice. The possibilities are as delicious as they are endless. Enjoy!
