in Pork
Rubbed the butt with only Hawaiian salt. Wrapped with a banana leaf and cooked at 275 for 8 and half hours. No wood for smoke just Rockwood. Grilled pineapple salsa, yellow rice and kings Hawaiian rolls. Definetly a great change up from traditional smoked pulled pork.

Nice cook for sure!They don’t want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don’t want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They’re not interested in that. That doesn’t help them. That's against their interests. - George Carlin

It allows the meat to braise in the natural sugars if the banana leaf and gives the pork a sweet taste.EggHeadinFlorida said:what does the banana leaf do to the meat?Large and Small BGECentral, IL -

I think that will be fine especially since neither you or I cooked it in a IMU so it's not traditional anyways.GatorConch said:Looks great and I 'm going to try this for New Year's eve.
