In Hawaii we cook it with sea salt and luau leaves (replace with a whole bunch of spinach) and wrapped in foil and cooked low $250 for about 6 hours.

I used to add liquid smoke but I don't think that is very TF. Any other ideas mamas?

I made this recipe last week, and it was *awesome*--highly recommended!

I don't know if this is TF but we slice it thinly, marinate for 2 days in low sodium soy sauce, sugar and garlic, thread onto skewers then grill. Mmmmmmmm

Pulled pork!!!

Brine that baby, smear it with a spice rub (paprika, cumin, garlic powder, chili powder, whatever else turns your crank), stick it in a smoker for a couple hours, then finish it low & slow in the oven (or in the smoker if yours gets hot enough - mine doesn't).

Then make a bbq sauce with homemade ketchup, rapadura/sucanat, ACV, minced onion, garlic, mustard... whatever else. I put peaches in the last batch - yummy!

When the pork is done (6 hours is usually enough) let it rest until it's cool enough to touch, and then pull it apart using fingers & forks. Toss with the bbq sauce and serve on squishy white buns. : Or if you want to be all virtuous, homemade sprouted grain sourdough buns. With coleslaw. mmmmm.
