We’ve been using this instead of the heavy BBQ pulled pork. Such a refreshing change. We also use it with slider buns instead of the large kaiser rolls.

Just made your version but didn’t use the hickory liquid smoke(gives me heartburn), I have apple wood liquid smoke & used the Alaea(pink salt) as you suggested. It’s perfect. Thank you and thanks for the coconut rice recipe!

In reply to Diane. Also, sub in some soy sauce for the sea salt & you won’t be sorry. Just as authentic.

Made this over the weekend & loved it – great flavor!! But has anyone tried it on a pork cut you don’t shred? (loin/chops…)

I used just under 3 lbs of Pork Shoulder instead of Butt. I slightly reduced the amount of Garlic, Ginger, Salt and Liquid Smoke by about a 1/2 tbsp each to compensate. It came out phenomenally. Coconut Rice was the perfect accompaniment to the salty, smokey pork and went well with a Spinach Walnut Salad with Creamy Poppyseed dressing on the side. Simple but really good. Will be retaining this recipe to make again.

Put water in the bottom of slow cooker, enough to just cover bottom. Use a shoulder butt pork roast that has a lot of fat on it. Rub a coarse salt (Hawaiian salt if available) all over roast. Sprinkle liquid smoke all over roast. Put in slow cooker, cover and cook on Low for 10 to 12 hours. Remove from pot, let rest for 20 to 30 minutes, then shred using 2 forks or hands. Same process for oven, 225 degrees for 10 to 12 hours.

Thank you for this! For years I used a similar recipe from a magazine/web site, but a couple years ago I discovered they’d deleted it for a newer, more complicated recipe. Simpler is often best! Now I have alternatives to turning on the oven when it’s hot outside.

Just made this in the slow cooker, followed the directions exactly and it’s amazing! Can’t wait to serve it to family and friends! Thanks for such a simple recipe using basic ingredients!
