Buta meshi
Japanese carnitas.
One of those things I know I should be able to see a veg version of.
@buttermilk Half of our house is vegetarian, I'll have to try making a veggie version of it too. Good idea on the jackfruit. I'll bet shiitake would hold up well too.
that GLAZE though. making me drool.
FYI, pork shoulder is also sold as pork butt. Confusing, I know. I went to 3 grocery stores looking for pork shoulder when I made carnitas for the first time and finally googled 'pork butt' when I kept finding all these roasts that looked right but weren't called shoulder.
