For those of us who are a bit more "time challenged" I might suggest the Carnitas from Costco. After a couple of tiki parties / luaus where we made our pork with similar recipes as posted, we needed to cut down preparation time so we could supply our guests with a nice variety of luau foods. Locating pre-packaged Carnitas (roasted pork) at our local Costco, we simply followed the directions on the package (microwave 4 minutes, poke holes in wrapping, and microwave another 4 minutes), shredded the pork pieces using forks, added a little Hawaiian salt and liquid smoke to the finished pork, and microwaved for a couple minutes more. We had some fantastic tasting kalua pork with less time and effort.

And don't forget the POI!!
