Butadon (豚丼), often literally translated into English as pork bowl, is a Japanese dish consisting of a bowl of rice topped with pork simmered in a mildly sweet sauce. It also often includes a sprinkling of green peas. A popular food in Japan, it is commonly served with takuan. Buta means "pig" or "pork", and don is short for donburi, the Japanese word for "bowl".
- Butadon originated from the city of Obihiro, Japan. This version is known as Obihiro butadon.[1]
- Butadon originated as an alternative offered by Gyūdon chain stores in response to the 2003 outbreak of Bovine spongiform encephalopathy. This version is known as Gyūdon chain butadon.
This article will explain the differences between the two in detail.
Obihiro Butadon
[edit]The Tokachi Subprefecture style of butadon is a bowl of rice topped with pork cooked with a sweet and spicy sauce. The founder of Pancho, a popular restaurant in Obihiro, is considered responsible for the dish's creation.[2]
Raising pigs in the Tokachi region started around the end of the Meiji era and since then pork became very popular. Pancho's founder wanted to provide an invigorating dish for laborers, so eel was considered as an ingredient, but eel was difficult to obtain. Thus, pork was selected due to its ready availability.[3]
In 2003, to differentiate from Gyūdon chain butadon, this style of butadon is referred to as "Obihiro butadon", "Obihiro style butadon", or "Tokachi butadon".
This dish is offered in many restuarants in eastern Hokkaido as a Tokachi specialty and enjoyed with additional seasonings of sugar and soy sauce. Some stores differ in preparation of the pork (grilled or teppanyaki) and toppings (the whites of green onions, green peas).
Gyūdon chain butadon
[edit]Gyūdon chain butadon is a dish with thinly sliced pork simmered in warishita(a sauce mixture of sake, soy sauce, sugar, mirin, and dashi), placed on top of rice, along with toppings such as onions and burdock roots.
Gyūdon chains refer to their own butadon dishes differently. The Japanese character for "buta" that makes up butadon is typically read using Kun'yomi, but Sukiya uses On'yomi instead. The provided names below utlize romaji.

経緯
[edit]BSE問題により牛丼の代替品として導入
[edit]2003年（平成15年）12月のBSE問題による牛肉の調達困難に伴い、牛丼の代替品として開発された。
牛丼にできるだけ近い味を目指した商品であったが、当初は豚肉の特性に合わせた調理法や味付けが不完全だったため、低評価を下した客も少なくなかった[4]。その後地道な改良を重ねて豚肉により合った調理法とオペレーションを築き上げ、独自の味付けに変化することで牛丼とは別の顧客が開拓された[4][5]。
