      Deliciouso! I had Kailua Pork as a kid growing up in Okinawa (Japan)--we had an Hawaiian neighbor who threw the world's best Hawaiian parties. She made the pig in the ground with banana and coconut fronds covering it. I loved this recipe because I didn't have to dig a pit or find banana leaves to cook it--thank goodness! The flavour is surprisingly very close to my neighbor's succulent pig. The spinach in this recipe acts much in the same way as the banana leaves--sealing in the juices of the pig. Use the sea salt--it's a much better flavor than the fine salt. Also, let the meat rest 7-10 minutes before shredding it. I served this with a "salsa" of sliced radishes, chopped cilantro, and green onions, and sea salt. We piled it high on toasted seseme seed buns. Delicious, and ALOHA! Thanks for sharing this great recipe.

      I followed the directions exactly, and the pork came out great! Not salty at all, but I used course sea salt rather than fine sea salt, which the store had both of.. my house smelled GREAT for the 5 hours and I will definitely make this again.

      I did this in the crockpot because I couldn't seem to find the time to put it in the oven. The pork came out tender and flavorful, but a bit on the salty side. It would have been better in the oven - the cut of meat made the crockpot rendition a bit greasy. Or, maybe it would work in the crockpot with a pork loin. (I did still use the foil wrap in the crock, because I don't trust my crockpot.)
