Crockpot recommendation
Yesterday I made Luau Pork in the crockpot. Oh.....YUM.
About a 3-4 lb pork butt
4-5 slices of bacon
4-5 cloves of garlic, chopped
3 T. Black Hawaiian Lava Salt
2 T. Liquid Smoke
Cut the raw bacon pieces in half and line the bottom of the crock pot with them.
Chop the garlic and sprinkle over the bacon.
Poke holes in the pork butt and rub it well with the Black Hawaiian salt.
Place the pork butt fat side down (trim as much fat as you like, your preference) on top of the bacon and garlic.
Sprinkle the Liquid Smoke over the pork butt.
Do not add any other liquid to the pot. You want the pork to roast in the crock pot, not braise. It puts out enough of it's own juices.
I cooked mine 10 hours on low because that's how long I was out of the house at work, etc.
You can vary your cooking time and either hi or low depending on how much time you have. Probably start out on hi and go to low after 4 hours. You want it to be fall apart tender.
Pull the pork apart and stir around in the crock pot to mix all the juices and bacon and garlic around in the pork. EAT
Oh My Goodness, this is good.
