Tips & Notes:
1. Pork shoulder butt/ collar butt- is near the back of the front leg of the pig and has more tendons and some fat = juicy. The reason it's the best part is because it's cheap. This part isn't too fat and not too thin and soaks up the sauce well. After baking, the tendons are tender and juicy. This is how the best pulled pork is prepared.
2. Cola's soda can make the meat tender and juicy without marinating it. This is the secret of how the meat becomes tender in a short time. It also gives the meat an extra caramel flavor.
3. Gochujang hot pepper paste is a popular Korean paste. It's slightly spicy and full of spices. My recipe is only slightly spicy, so even kids can eat it. If you like more spiciness, you can add more.
4. If you cook it in a Dutch Oven or a thick pot, put the pot on the stove, covered, on low heat for 2 hours. You don't need to stir or do anything. Just remember to keep the heat low so it doesn't burn. Use a thicker pot to better retain and conduct the heat.
