Lee, almost every recipe for Kalua pig calls for a little liquid
smoke. I did a pork butt bone-in two nights ago and added the usual,
Hawaiian salt, and a small amount of liquid smoke. I wrapped the butt
in banana leaves (I didn't have ti leaves) and cooked in the crock-pot
for 10 hours. It came out absolutely delicious, or so say the ones
who ate. (I cannot eat by mouth) My neighbor loved it because he said
it was not overwhelmed with the smoke flavor. I guess it's a matter
of how much one uses. I used only a tablespoon.
