Food for The Cat’s bento.
“Faux” Kalua Pork
Pork cooked very nicely. And because it was chunks and not one piece, cooked faster (about 1/3 the time). Moist and tender, shredded with a spoon.
Shredded
An added plus, the chunks made smaller pieces than a whole “butt”. The Mouse might be using pork “adobo” chunks more often. 🙂
Charred Brussels Sprouts
Just olive oil, no salt. The Brussels Sprouts will balance out the saltiness of the Kalua Pork. Think Kalua Pork and Cabbage reimagined. Hee hee.
Enjoy. Eat well.

Liquid Smoke

Kaua‘i Sea Salt
Trying stove top Kalua Pork. A whole shoulder is a little too much to handle. Using pork shoulder chunks.
