Smoked Kalua Pork Butt Question

[jeepdad]

Having a luau tomorrow for the family. It's to remember my MIL that passed about a year ago, it's her birthday tomorrow. She was born in Hawaii although not Hawaiian.



I'm doing my first kalua pig pork butt (10 pds). Drilling through all the recipes online the amount of pink salt varies greatly in the rub. Not much of a rub really pretty much just salt. Some say 1.5 teaspoons others say 4 Tablespoons and wished they'd added more. I've got lots of time with butts and rubs but this one has me scratching my head. I ended up doing 5 tablespoons. I may try and take some off in the morning before putting on the smoker.



Anyone have any experience with kalua pork? Thanks
