For a richer flavor, sear the pork butt on all sides in a hot skillet before placing it in the slow cooker. If you prefer a thicker sauce, remove the shredded pork from the slow cooker and whisk 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of cold water. Stir the slurry into the slow cooker liquid and cook on High for 10-15 minutes, or until thickened. Leftover teriyaki pulled pork can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently before serving. Try adding a splash of rice vinegar or a pinch of red pepper flakes for a more complex flavor profile.
