Kalua Pork

This tastes great with a little hoisin sauce on top or if you can get a hold of Mang Tomas All Purpose Sauce (it's a Filipino sauce).
When I first came across this recipe I initially thought that the kalua referred to the alcohol. This recipe definitely doesn't use kalua. It's actually a traditional Hawaiian pork dish. This recipe is amazingly easy and produces such tender shredded pork. You just have to plan ahead with the recipe since it takes more than 12 hours to properly cook.
 
Ingredients:
·         4 to 5 pound pork butt
·         1 tablespoon liquid smoke
·         2 1/2 tablespoons sea salt  

Instructions:
1.      Place pork in the crock pot and stab it all over with the tip of a knife.

2.      Rub sea salt all over pork.

3.      Drizzle the liquid smoke all over.

4.      Set the crock pot to low and cook for about 16 hours. Shred with two forks.
