“Kahluha Pork is my favorite thing to have when we are in Hawaii! I cant believe how easy this was to make — I did add some banana leaves to the bottom of my IP and it was delicious! I was thinking we’d have some leftover for burritos today but every last bite ” — a cook
“We were stationed in Hawaii for many years when my husband was active duty, and this is the exact ingredients we use for authentic kalua pork! So simple and super flavorful! I always slow cook it, but now I’m anxious to try this in an instant pot. Great recipe” — a cook
