Kalua Pork Tacos with Mango Salsa and Lime Sour Cream

Posted at 8:16 AM by arts

Kalua Pork

3-4 pounds pork roast
1-2 tablespoons Hawaiian salt or Kosher salt
1/4 c. liquid smoke
1 c. cup water (you can also use beef or chicken broth)
4 washed ti leaves (if ti leaves aren't available or you don't know what they are, no worries-- it is still great without them. They just add a cool local Hawaiian element to the dish. You can also subsitute a banana peel, and I promise it won�t taste like bananas!)

Line bottom of crock pot with 2 ti leaves (if you have them). Rub pork generously with salt, pour on liquid smoke then place on ti leaves (or in the crock pot). Add water. Fit remaining ti leaves (again, if you have them) around outer edge of crockpot. Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours. Garnish with chopped green onion or cilantro.

Serve with warm corn tortillas, cheddar cheese, mango salsa (from costco) and lime sour cream (add juice and zest of one lime to a container of sour cream). You can add lettuce too if you prefer.
