What is inside this 580 gr Pulled pork burger?
As the name of the set suggests it, this pulled pork burger has a rich serving of a well-marinated meat. Pork is seasoned and stored in a brine with herbs and spices for a couple of days, weeks or even month. All that depends on the preparation method.
Apart form that, inside the burger are pickled carrots and, what might be surprising – Korean kimchi salad. Actually, kimchi is not so extremely spicy, but still gives a nice spicy note to the burger.
Pulled pork is tender, and aromatic. Its subtle flavor and texture are stressed by a slightly smoked, original American barbeque sauce, that nicely adds a rustic hint.
What is marinated pulled pork?
It is a way of preparing and serving meat that makes it extremely tender, delicate and with a lot of aromas. The whole process usually takes a lot of time and needs to be done slowly. Hurry is definitively not recommended and according to the best recipes, the process should take at least a couple of hours if not days or weeks.
Although there are restricted rules in regard of the cooking temperature, if you do not follow them, it is also fine. The most important thing is to let the meat cook slowly and marinate it beforehand. This marinate gives an extra tenderness and juiciness. Marinating in the brine can take days. During that time, meat is stored in a cold and dark place. From time to time it is rolled in the sauce, so that the whole meat is well covered and evenly marinated. After that, starts the cooking phase that also can take hours. It is slaw and on a low heat.
Thanks to these two steps the meat is becoming extremely soft, delicate and juicy.
How big is this Pulled pork burger?
The answer is quite simple – that is an almost 600-gram meal. Of course, it does not mean that you get over half kilo of pulled pork. In 580 grams are included all menu items. So that is bun, meat, baked potatoes, condiments, sauces, and vegetables. However, the burger set is rich and believe me, the weight is not only made by an enormous serving of potatoes. The whole pulled pork burger is richly stuffed. The amount of marinated pork is not reduced to the minimum but is the base of this burger. Although the bun is also quite big, it is relatively light and has a rather low density. All condiments come in a reasonable amount. You will definitively not feel that costs were cut.
What is it served with?
This pulled pork burger is not served alone. It comes with baked potatoes and unique sauces. Potatoes are cut into quarters or eights, baked with skins, and seasoned only with salt. Potatoes’ edges are nicely browned, slightly crunchy but at the same time soft inside.
It comes with two sauces. One is inside the burger, and one is served in a small bowl aside. Both have an unusual taste. The first one, smoked barbeque, gives a nice, rustic aroma. The second one, honey mustard sauce, is ideal for potatoes and for balancing flavors. The spiciness of kimchi salad, the aroma of marinated pulled pork and the smoked barbeque taste are well balanced by this slightly sweet but still a little bit bitter honey mustard sauce.
The whole composition of flavors is ideal. None of them overwhelms others, and none of them is killed.
