If using Impossible burger, follow same instructions as ground pork in Step 4, breaking up until burger is heated through, 4-6 minutes.

Stir often, breaking up meat, until no pink remains and pork reaches a minimum internal temperature of 160 degrees, 4-5 minutes.Stir in BBQ sauce until sauce coats pork, 1-2 minutes.Remove from burner.While pork cooks, continue recipe.Make Ginger-Garlic Crema and Finish Dish
