Hawaiian Pork Roast
Bananas, liquid smoke and soy sauce flavor this fall-apart-tender pork roast. It's just like the kind I enjoyedat the luaus I went to in Hawaii. —Mary Gaylord, Balsam Lake, Wisconsin

I followed the recipe exactly, except cut down on the cooking time after reading other reviews. I did the 1 hour at 400 and 45 minutes at 325. It was still overdone and very hard to shred. The flavor was just not there. The picture looked so good, I can't say the same for mine
This was my first time making it. As others have said, it was delicious, juicy, and very easy to make. My only complaint is the cook time. I used a 3.5 lb roast and followed the reviews for cook time because I was worried it would be overdone. I put it in at 325 and planned to roast it for at least 3.5 hours, turning up the heat at the end if necessary. I checked it at the 2 hour mark and it was already overdone. It was too done to shred well, so we had to chop it up and save it in the fridge for a couple hours until the rest of dinner was ready. It was still delicious, but we will definitely need to experiment with cooking times and temps on this one.
This was my first time making. I used 2lb fresh pork roast from a pig I raised. I did not have time to marinate it per the directions. I marinated for 4 hours and turned it 4 times. I went by the reviews for cook time and it was done in 3 hours. It was delicious! Next time I will marinate over night for more flavor. The receipt was so simple!
This is a stand-by recipe. Always delicious!
The first time I made this it was amazing. This is the third time I've made it. Both this time and the last it cooked way too fast. Perhaps the first time I used a giant roast. I don't remember. I pulled it out at 1.75 hours at 325 and it was already at 170. Needless to say...it didn't shred. Perhaps my oven stays too hot. Next time, I'm going to try pulling it out and letting the oven cool to 325 before putting it in. Or maybe I'll do 325 first then finish at 400 till it comes up to temp.
Delicious! I made it for my daughter's 11th Luau birthday party. I thought it would be more difficult but it was surprisingly easy to make with very few ingredients.

Excellent! I have made this many, many times. It is delicious! I prefer it without the bananas. I have also made it in a slow cooker, without the foil, but I think the oven method is better. Save some of the juices to put on the meat and for leftovers.
