Infused with tropical flavors and cooked to perfection, this dish is a celebration of Pacific Island culinary traditions, perfect for any gathering or special occasion.
A Feast Worthy of the Islands
“For Pacific Islanders, pork is more than just a dish—it’s the centerpiece of celebration,” Chef Garden Clam’Sea explains. “With the right blend of spices and a touch of island-inspired flair, roast pork becomes an unforgettable experience for everyone at the table.”
Ingredients
- 4-5 lbs pork shoulder or pork belly, skin-on
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (optional for heat)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Fresh herbs (like cilantro or parsley) for garnish
Preparation Method
- Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, lime juice, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, smoked paprika, cumin, chili powder (if using), salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a flavorful marinade.
- Marinate the Pork: Score the skin of the pork in a crisscross pattern and rub the marinade all over the meat, ensuring it gets into the cuts. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat and Roast: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Place the marinated pork on a roasting rack in a large baking dish. Drizzle the vegetable oil over the skin to ensure it crisps up during cooking. Roast for 2.5 to 3 hours, basting with the pan drippings occasionally.
- Crisp the Skin: For that irresistible crackling, increase the oven temperature to 425°F (220°C) for the final 20 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. The skin should bubble and crisp up beautifully.
- Rest and Serve: Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes. Slice into thick, juicy pieces and garnish with fresh herbs. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted root vegetables, taro mash, or a tangy pineapple salsa.
Health Benefits
While indulgent, this dish also offers nutritional value. Pork is a good source of protein and essential vitamins like B12 and zinc. Pairing it with nutrient-dense sides like vegetables or salads ensures a balanced meal that satisfies both the palate and the body.
Chef’s Tip
For an authentic Pacific Island touch, consider adding a banana leaf under the pork while roasting. This enhances the aroma and imparts a subtle earthiness to the meat.

Chef Garden Clam’Sea’s Island-Style Roast Pork is more than a dish—it’s a culinary masterpiece that embodies the warmth and generosity of Pacific Island culture. Whether you’re hosting a feast or looking to impress family and friends, this recipe is a guaranteed crowd-pleaser.
With its succulent meat, crackling skin, and bold tropical flavors, this dish will quickly become a favorite in your kitchen, bringing the essence of the Pacific Islands to your table.
