Butadon | Pork rice bowl

Butadon (豚丼) is a common rice bowl dish in Japan. My version is served with really rich and tasty sauce like you never seen anywhere else!! This is't a difficult recipe So you will definitely love it, and make it again and again!!

Butadon | Pork rice bowl

A hearty meal for hungry people


Butadon was originally made in Tokachi region in Hokkaido Japan.

This is a very hearty dish. But not only that.

Pork is a good source of B vitamins which burn sugar in the body and convert it into energy. Other meats don't have as much B vitamins as pork does.


If you exercise regularly, or you have kids, pork is great meat for your life healthier!!

But don't forget to eat some vegetables with it!!
