Tasty and easy! I liked trying a different option for pulled pork. This was slightly sweet & the teriyaki flavors were there. I used cornstarch instead of flour to thicken. I served on whole wheat hoagies & I liked grilled pineapple, sliced green onions, and thin sliced napa cabbage for some crunch as toppings. Served with roasted sweet potato fries. This would be good at a luau type party. Thank you for sharing the recipe! :-)
