This is SO GOOD! I am making it for the second time today. The meat is very tender with a nice mild flavor. I can get three meals out of this, using the left overs to make pulled pork sandwiches and pork tacos.

This is my new go-to Kalua pig recipe. Wow…so incredibly easy and such great flavor! I left out the water, as like the other said, there was no need for it at all. By the time it was done, the pork was sitting in about a cup of liquid. Next time, I’ll add cabbage to the last hour of cooking. Delish!

Me and my husband just went on our honeymoon in Hawaii and went to a Luau in Lahaina. I can’t wait to make some of the recipes we had there! Thanks for posting this!!

This was amazing! My whole family loved it and it totally reminded them of the pork from the islands. So easy to make.

If you can get Hawaiian rock salt, by all means use that. And don’t use water, no need! I put a few holes into the pork before cooking and insert peeled cloves of garlic, it adds extra flavor to the cooked kalua pork. I know it isn’t traditional..shhhhh.

I love this recipe. I originally covered the meat 1/2 with water but see that it is only 1/2 cup which makes it better (not so soupy). I made this for a “Tiki” birthday party(8 years old) for my niece–she and her friends loved it

Kalua pork is amazing! It tastes so good this way! I make it the same except I never add water. It always turns out so yummy! Great recipe!!
