Kalua pig is a popular at Hawaiian lluaus where a whole pig is smoked in a sand pit with sea salt, banana leaves and wood. This simple corckpot method mimics the smoked flavor of using natural liquid smoke and the results are an easy, mouth-watering juicy pork recipe anyone can make at home.
You can serve this over rice or serve on hamburger buns as a sandwich. Make sure to make the Pineapple Brown Sugar BBQ Sauce recipe also found on this blog.
Coarse Red Hawaiian Sea Salt can be found at Trader Joes. Make sure to use boneless pork shoulder blade roast, as it is leaner than the pork shoulder picnic. A pork loin roast would also work, although it's a bit leaner and therefore drier. This slow cooks in your crockpot for about 16 hours.
2-3 Pounds Trimmed Pork Shoulder Blade Roast
1 Tablespoon Liquid Smoke
Coarse Red Hawaiian Sea Salt
Place prok in the crockpot. Stab it all over with the tip of a knife. Rub sea salt all over pork. Drizzle the liquid smoke all over and set crockpot to low and cook for 16 hours.
Remove from crockpot and place on a large platter. Remove any fat you may have missed. Shred pork with a fork.
