Easiest pork EVER

Kalua Pig


Okay this recipe takes all day in your slow cooker, but seriously so easy!!!!

I got this recipe from a blog called Whole30 Cooking. And they call it Kalua Pig, which is just so cool and I love it. I love that you can eat pork on Whole30! Life is good. Also, click here to see what to do with your leftovers!



Anyway, onto the recipe.

INGREDIENTS:

5 lbs pork shoulder 
2 tablespoons liquid smoke 
2-3 tablespoons Pink Himalayan Salt 

 DIRECTIONS:

 1. Rinse pork and pat dry. Place in a slow cooker. 

 2. Stab holes all over the pork with a knife.

 3. On one side put 1 Tbs. of liquid smoke and 1 Tbs. of salt and the same on the other side. 

 4. Cook on low for 10 hours. (I know it's a long time)

  • Shred (but not too thin) in slow cooker and serve. 
  • Serve with charred cabbage or really anything. You can buy a head of cabbage or shredded cabbage (because Trader Joe's only has shredded cabbage, punks). And I threw it in a skillet with some oil, salt, and pepper. It was perfect. 
  • Feel free to garnish with jalapenos or more cabbage, hot sauce, anything you want.




  • This may seem like it won't be flavorful or it's a lot of time for nothing, but you will have so many leftovers and it is the best pork I have ever had, there I said it. TRY IT! Make it for a party, dinner, meal prep, ANYTHING!

I know, I know... I am super behind... But I am determined to catch up! Day 29, I have been wanting to get better with my ipad and Apple pencil.... since I have one and don't want to waste my money. Anyway, this isn't my best work, and I haven't found the best pens to use... I'll get there. Plus this replay time lapse is the coolest thing ever. Here's #DAY29 On to day 30, I have finally made this a habit! Today I used my chalk markers on slate. I chose a Zombieland quote, because it makes me happy. Here it is #DAY30 Day 31. So, I want to apologize for today... My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary (early) and I took some pretty pictures and mixed my own cocktail.. I'd call that creative. I know these snippets are really short.... Anyway, Day 32 I decided to commemorate our anniversary trip at Devil's Thumb Ranch (MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACE EVER!!!) So, this is my creative project for #DAY32 Moving on to Day 33, I...

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 92-100)

Okay, So I have a couple extra days in this post, but it's the last post!!!!! 100 DAYS!!!!! I am the coolest! Leading off with #DAY92 with my all time favorite motivational quote! It's seriously amazing, and online it has an extra part, but I didn't think that was appropriate for social media.... For #DAY93 I was sitting around knowing I wanted to do some block letters, but couldn't think of anything to write. Then my hubbers walked in the door and here it is. It was a quick doodle, but he really liked it. So, it's a keeper. Now #DAY94 I made this amazing WHOLE30 approved gumbo with cauliflower rice!!!! It was so amazing, very spicy, but will eat again after the diet..... probably with real rice, but that's okay. PS, don't you just love my parsley garnish??? So artsy. Hahahaha! Recipe here And this is #DAY95. I only have 5 days left.... this is insane. I'm sure all my family and friends are happy it's almost over... Anyway, I p...
