Hawaiian Pork





Serve this pork on Hawaiian sweet rolls. One roll is 3 points +, 2 rolls are 5 points+ Add points for rolls.
This recipe is tender and juicy. You will love it! I adapted this recipe from a recipe sent by my friend, Sabrina.

Hawaiian Pork: serves 25-30 ( 2 points +)

2-¾ lb. pork loin
1 onion, sliced
½ c. packed brown sugar
½ c. fat-free chicken broth
¼ c. low-sodium soy sauce
6 oz. pineapple juice
½ tsp. red pepper flakes
½ T. minced ginger (from a jar)
2 tsp. crushed garlic (from a jar)

In a medium bowl, stir together brown sugar, chicken broth, soy sauce, pineapple juice and red pepper flakes. Reserve half of this mixture for sauce later.
Place onion in the bottom of a crock pot coated with cooking spray. Place pork over onion and pour half of broth mixture over pork. Cover and cook on low for 7-8 hours or until easily shreddable. Shred pork.
In a small saucepan coated with cooking spray, saute ginger and garlic for 30 seconds. Add reserved broth mixture and cook until reduced ( about 10 minutes). Stir into shredded pork. Serve on Hawaiian rolls.

  1. I noticed that this serves 25-30. Is there any way you remember how much a serving might be? Thanks

  2. Renee,
    I am not sure exactly how much a serving would be. I filled about 30 Hawaiian sweet rolls. I would guess about 1-1/2 - 2 oz. of meat.
