Cooking Steps
-
Wash and dry produce.
-
Quarter lime. Trim and discard root end from lettuce; separate leaves; thinly slice 1-2 small center leaves.
-
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, juice from one lime wedge (two wedges for 4 servings), salt, pepper, and as much Sriracha as you like. Add water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency.
-
Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork* and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes.
-
Stir in cabbage; cook, stirring occasionally, until just tender, 2-3 minutes.
-
Add hoisin, chili sauce, and 2½ TBSP sweet soy glaze (5 TBSP for 4 servings) (be sure to measure the sweet soy glaze—we sent more!). Stir until thoroughly combined.
-
Turn off heat. Stir in juice from two lime wedges (four wedges for 4). Taste and season with salt and pepper.
-
Divide lettuce leaves between plates; fill with shredded lettuce and moo shu pork. Drizzle with Sriracha-lime mayo and serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.

Review summary
Updated on Sep 2026- Flavor: The sweet-and-savory sauce combination is a crowd-pleaser, though some found it a touch too sweet — use half the sweet soy glaze or reduce the Thai chili sauce to balance it out.
- Ease of prep: This comes together in about 20 minutes and is genuinely easy to make, with minimal cleanup — a great weeknight win.
- Suggestions: Add crushed peanuts, cashews, or crispy fried shallots for crunch and depth; a splash of rice vinegar brightens the sauce nicely 🌶️. If the lettuce leaves are too small for wraps, shred them and serve everything as a bowl over rice instead.
- Leftovers: The pork filling reheats well and tastes great the next day over rice or tucked into tortillas.
- Portions: Some felt the meal skewed more like a light lunch than a full dinner — consider adding a side of rice or dumplings to round it out.
Reviews from our home cooks
This is a great idea of using lettuce wraps! Still crunchy, but not the chewiness of flour tortillas. I really love the sauce combo and, except for sriracha (don't like the heat). Cabbage is a great addition, though some mild peppers would have made this dish even better. I enjoyed this one! I have a suggestion: Please put the little red chili pepper next to ingredients that are spicy hot. You used to do that. Some people may be unfamiliar with certain ingredients, and the symbol would give them a warning.
I love this one, it is so easy to make and has a really good flavor - the pork goes really well with all the sauces and since I much prefer the lettuce wraps to flour tortillas I try to order this one every time it's available.
The cabbage turned very quickly. Possibly since it was pre shredded. And the bag was sweaty inside. The glaze was just a BIT too sweet. For sure for hubby and kiddo who prefer the spice to sugar flavor on the meat. I'm sure next time we could use 1/2 the sweet soy glaze and 1/2 the Sweet Thai chili sauces rather than full amounts listed. Tasty lettuce wraps for a nice meal
I liked the beef mixture. Lettuce wraps are a nice idea, but the hot beef mix on the cold lettuce leaf made it difficult to eat. I ended up using 2 lettuce leaves. The meat mixture is fairly easy to replicate, which is nice. I wouldn't mind a little rice to add into the lettuce wrap.
For sauce used half to a third mayo (equal parts mayo & siracha) with half lime juice. Added remaining half lime juice with beef at end. Added equal parts shredded carrot to cabbage and added at same time. Used only 2T sweet soy glaze.
We love the lettuce wraps! There is always plenty of lettuce and it is surprisingly fresh every time. I was skeptical about ordering them at first, now they are a favorite.
Moo Shu Pork Lettuce Wraps are really really delightful for a summer evening. It is easy to eat one too many.
The Moo Shu flavor combination is one of the better Asian style meals. I enjoy it in every form, and lettuce wraps are quite fun to do every so often
Nothing bad could be said about moo shu in our book. I always ignore the instruction to measure the sauce and just use the whole packet. Delicious!
Great flavor but messy to eat in the lettuce wraps. I'd definitely make it again though.
