day of cooking

My lovely risen dough. I have been cooking and cleaning all morning. I'm making siopao, which will hopefully last us a few weeks. I decided to add hard boiled eggs to them since I had to buy eggs for the dough, so I used this method after a quick google search. The method worked fairly well, though I think the water was boiling longer than it should I have; I was multitasking and didn't catch it right away. The eggs turned out much better than eggs I have made in the past though, so I will continue with this method.

In the past I used only chicken, rather than following the recipe and using both chicken and pork. But since I don't really eat chicken anymore, I used all pork. I'm not sure how well it will turn out, unfortunately; after about 3 hours on high in the slow cooker, the pork butt I bought hadn't softened up at all. I would usually have let it cook overnight, but I didn't think of cooking siopao until this morning. I hope my filling doesn't turn out tough. That would make me very sad after laboring all day to cook. I'm letting it cook another hour on the stove before i start filling. My dough is getting a little unruly.
