I am excited about my smoker today Pork and Banana leaves

[ArcheryNerd]

I've never tried this one but I am excited. later we are going to do some papaya rice and pineapple soaked in fireball whiskey on the grill.

So far I learned that you have to tie the banana leaves at 90 degees from the grain or they will split super easy.

1tsp kosher salt 1/2tsp smoked salt 1/2tsp paprika
Fresh banana leaves, thanks Amazon

This pork looks like Mana from Heaven compared to that gruel you eat 3 times a day.

yes, The leaves will filter most of the carbon out, but will allow a beautiful rose colored smoke ring. The flavor is amazing. This is common practice for whole hog cooking in island communities.

Looks awesome! More on the papaya rice and pineapple soaked in fireball?
