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!

100 Day Creativity Challenge (Days 8-14)

Hey Guys, I'm back- and trying to be even more creative than ever. I love hand lettering, and obviously it is what I think I am good at. But I am determined to be more "creative" in my creativity choices. So, for Day 8 I chose to learn to crochet. Sounds easier said than done, right? Well, you are correct. I was quite terrible. I first started with the chain, pretty easy. A little awkward at first, but then relatively easy. Then I had to move to the next level, that's when it got a little sloppy. But then I ended going up another 4 levels and it got better and better each time. Now I just need to learn something other than a single or double stitch.... What do you think of my #DAY8 ? Alright, moving on to Day 9. I thought I would mix my creativity up a little and make some delicious dessert. When it comes to desserts I usually stick with cookies, brownies, and ice cream. That's usually where I stay, and I enjoy it there- don't get me w...

I Will Conquer Mount Sanitas

Hello! I have recently wanted to start hiking more. First, because the mountains call my name every morning and Second, because I have some free time right now... and Third, I am trying to get into better shape. My ultimate goal is to make it the entire Mount Sanitas Loop, which isn't hard for some people, but let me tell you... it's hard if you are a terrible breather and in the worst shape of your life #me. So, I set out to conquer it. And not only to just finish it, but to do it easily. I want this to still be a workout, but an easy workout.... if that makes sense. Anyway, Day One I went out and didn't quite make it to the top. I am a wuss. I have really bad knees from playing softball in college, and I just made a lot of excuses, let's be honest. But even just going half way or however far I got (no clue) was worth it. It stirred a passion in me to go to the mountains as often as I can. Hopefully you can see why in these pictures. I attempted to tak...
