I get the Teri Pork plate from the Mililani LocoMoco and get the garlic chix plate form my wife.  As the say in the old days, broke the mouth.  :shaka:

And when I go to X-ring or in the Waipahu area, I stop off at Leeward Drive Inn and get the Leeward Special, teri pork open face sandwich, fresh cut fries, and mac salad with a large green river.  Too bad they stop making pies.
I like the Mochiko Chicken Plate at LocoMoco. Occasionally I order the Teri Beef Plate. I go to the Kapolei LocoMoco. I can't believe how good the food is and how much you get and for the price.

Sometimes my wife and I stop at the Leeward Drive Inn for breakfast. If we are up early we'll drive all the out to Waiakamilo and eat at the Original Pancake House.
SCIENCE THAT CAN’T BE QUESTIONED IS PROPAGANDA!!!

Oh oh

You just mentioned pressure cooker on a conservative gun forum.
Alarm bells are ringing at Homeland Security.

I do have a pressure cooker myself. Used it fo make stew faster.
The downside is that the fast cooking doesn't allow the herbs and spices the time to release their flavor.
Sure, the meat comes out soft, but not the same flavor as normal stew.
What, Me Worry?

Researching foods of the south, especially during the Civil War era.

"Hoppin' John" stew drew my interest, This is my modernized version of Hoppin John.
Fried chicken was a luxury.

This wasn't tonight but one of the things I made recently that I was pretty happy with was lau lau casserole. Basically layers of luau leaf, then the pork then more luau leaf. Bake low and slow for a few hours. Much simpler than making individual lau lau.

Hmmm. Good idea. I might try that.

If I try it, I would layer some ti leaves then luau leaves.
Also add a little liquid smoke with the Hawaiian salt  to impart a little imu flavor.

The bottom leaves did get a little on the oily side which people might not like but it was super tasty. I did notice that the top layer or two of leaves got dry. Still edible but the texture was a little papery. A layer of ti leaves on the top might prevent this.

After I cube the pork I toss it with garlic, rock salt, coconut oil and some liquid smoke. I just bought a large bag of lau lau leaves too and some pork butt so I will be making it again soon.

I made a crepe cake that I had seen in bakeries. Basically just layers of crepes, whipped cream, and fruit so essentially simple to make.

I will also occasionally dye the rice colors to irritate my wife. Kids love it.

I make quiche sometimes too. Relatively easy if you use a pre-made pie shell.

I was thinking it might get dry because Laulau is supposed to steam.
I presume you covered it tightly with foil?

That's what happens when you have a failed "Lamby Cake" that stuck in the mold and broke in half.
Throw in several Makers Mark Old Fashions (see background)  and you get a  "Party Lambinal"    :o

That all sounds good.
Will be making a LARGE pot of lau lau this week maybe I'll give that a try. Might add some coconut milk to take care of those top and bottom leaves.
