Many regions have their unique take on what the word “barbecue” means to their culture. When we think of traditional barbecue, there is one particularly delicious regional barbecue that unfortunately often gets forgotten — the barbecue of Hawaii.
What is the image that comes to mind when you think about Hawaiian barbecue? Do you picture a scene that is almost paradise? Soft sands, clear waters, lush palm trees that cool the persistent heat as you enjoy meats so tender that they melt in your mouth, and flavors that are so fresh and tropical that you close your eyes, hardly believing that they are real? If this isn’t the image in your mind, it should be. A traditional Hawaiian barbecue is called a luau, and is a celebration of life, people, and food, and that is something that we should all do more of every day. Many of the traditional luau foods are slow-cooked over a smoky pit, giving us the impression that it is simply impossible to enjoy these delicacies without being able to travel to the islands any time we wish. While it may not be possible to completely recreate a Hawaiian atmosphere in your home and backyard, you can come really close with this collection of authentic Hawaiian barbecue recipes.
