Kalua pork is usually cooked in an underground oven. When we get to Hawaii, we’ll see it firsthand probably. However, since we’re still in the city and I can’t find an underground oven in the backyard, I settled with the next best alternative- slow cooker! The trusty slow cooker that turns every simple recipe into something extraordinary. I allowed the slow cooker to do its magic for me. The result- tender strips of flavorful pork that my family enjoyed a lot.
Check out what our friends from Shockingly Delicious have to say about this recipe:
“Deeply porky, slightly smoky, perfectly and simply seasoned with traditional Hawaiian sea salt, Kalua Pork is a wonderful traditional Hawaiian meal.”
All of those exotic flavors in one pork recipe is surreal. You’ll probably get addicted to this simple but tasty Hawaiian pork recipe. And please don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Ingredients
2.5-pound Tyson pork shoulder butt roast, trimmed of large pieces of fat
1 ½ teaspoons Alaea Red Hawaiian Sea Salt
10 squirts Stubb’s hickory smoke flavoring
Instructions
Mist the inside of the crock with nonstick spray. Place all ingredients in the crock, put the lid on and cook on LOW for 12 hours (or 8 hours on LOW and 2 more hours on HIGH).
Remove lid and, using two forks, shred meat in the crock.
Serve meat with mashed potatoes, rice or another grain, and a green vegetable alongside. Pass barbecue sauce so each person may dribble a bit on their pork if they like.
