Ingredients
  • 3 lb pork butt
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons liquid smoke
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons Hawaiian salt, or sea salt, or kosher salt
  • 1 head of cabbage (optional, but REALLY GOOD)

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350-400 degrees F.
  2. Pierce pork butt all over with carving fork or score with a knife.
  3. Rub salt and liquid smoke into meat.
  4. Place pork fat side up in a roasting pan or deep casserole dish.
  5. Cover and roast in oven for 2 1/2-3 hours.
  6. Remove the pork from pan and shred with two forks.
  7. You also can opt to enjoy the dish as they serve it up in many Hawaiian loco mocos (take out restaurants) by shredding the meat and cooking it again with cabbage.
  8. While the pork cooks, simply steam a head of cabbage that you’ve cut into two-inch pieces.
  9. When the pork is done, let it cool slightly and then shred the meat and place it in a baking dish or roasting pan.
  10. Drain the cabbage well and stir it into the pork.
  11. Cover with foil and bake in a 350 degree oven for 30 to 45 minutes, to heat the pork and further wilt the cabbage.
  12. Serve with sticky white calrose rice!
