Oven Style Kalua Pork Or Pig Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Rub liquid smoke and 1 1/2 tablespoons of the salt into the skin of the pork. Wrap well in foil, and seal completely. Place in a roasting pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) is reached, about 5 hours. Remove from oven and let cool before shredding. Sprinkle the shredded meat with the remaining 1 tablespoon of salt.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make several slashes along the surface of the pork butt. Rub with salt, then liquid smoke. Prepare ti leaves by removing the rib. Lay out a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil, and place 4 ti leaves on top. Place pork on leaves and wrap them around the pork. Cover with remaining leaves in the opposite direction until pork is completely wrapped. Wrap the foil tightly around the pork to make a watertight seal.
• Place package in a large roasting pan. Fill with two inches of water and cover pan tightly with foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour. Lower temperature to 325 degrees F and cook for 3-3 1/2 hours or until tender. Unwrap pork from package and shred before serving.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix salt, Worcestershire sauce, shoyu, ginger, garlic and liquid smoke.
• Place pork roast on ti leaves.
• Rub pork roast with marinade and let stand 1 hour.
• Fold ti leaves over to enclose pork, then wrap in aluminum foil.
• Place in roasting pan and bake in a preheated 325F oven for four to five hours until done.
• Unwrap, shred and serve.

• Place roast in crockpot.
• Mix salt and Liquid Smoke and spread over roast.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 500°F.
• Lay 2 sheets of foil (each about 1 feet long) on a work surface with long sides overlapping by about 4 inches. Cut 2 (12-inch) lengths from banana leaf and center 1 on foil. Put pork on banana leaf and sprinkle with salt and liquid smoke. Cover top of pork with other 12-inch length of banana leaf and 2 overlapping sheets of foil (each about 1 1/2 feet long). Crimp edges of foil tightly to form a packet and put in a large roasting pan. Add 1 inches of water and cover pan tightly with more foil.
• Bake pork in middle of oven 4 hours. Pour off liquid from pan and, when pork is just cool enough to handle, shred with 2 forks in a bowl. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Each Pork Butt weighs in differently. For each pound of Pork use: ½ tablespoons Salt & ¾ tablespoons Liquid smoke (I use Hawaiian Salt and the Mesquite Flavor liquid Smoke, that tastes more like the real thing).
• Pre-heat the oven to 500?.
• Rub the Liquid Smoke all over the meat and then sprinkle evenly with the Sea Salt .
• Wrap the meat, Burrito style, in your leaves and then in Heavy Duty Foil.
• Place in a baking pan/dish and cover tightly with more foil.
• In it goes to the oven for 30 minutes, then reduce the heat to 325?.
• Bake for an additional 3 ½ hours.
• Allow to cool, unwrap and discard the foil and leaves (save any juices).
• Shred the meat how you like, either by hand or using two forks, combining it with those lovely juices.
• Serve warm, the way we do in Hawaii, with steamed White (or Brown) Rice. MMM! ONO!
• **Cook's Note: Banana Leaves can be found in Ethnic markets in the freezer section. Of course, if you're lucky enough to find Green (not multi-colored) Ti Leaves, that would make it truer to the Imu-Cooked (underground pit-oven) Kalua Pig.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350-400 degrees F. Pierce pork butt all over with carving fork or score with a knife. Rub salt and liquid smoke into meat. Place pork fat side up in a roasting pan or deep casserole dish. Cover and roast in oven for 2 1/2-3 hours. Remove the pork from pan and shred with two forks.
