The high point of any luau happens when a banana-leaf-covered pig is unearthed from a fiery pit. Kalua is Hawaiian for “to cook in an underground oven,” and the elaborate technique rewards patience with tender results (think absurdly succulent pork). To reproduce the ritual on a smaller, more manageable scale, look to your trusty slow cooker. After eight hours, the smell of the most delicious pulled pork may inspire everyone to hula around the slow cooker.

Note from Ricardo

Hawaiian red salt is a mineral-rich, unrefined salt that is mixed with volcanic red clay. It is often used to season kalua pork and poke. In this recipe, Hawaiian red salt can be replaced by the same quantity of kosher salt.
