Below are recipes for a full Hawaiian luau menu. Island locals often practice the tradition of “pot luck” luaus. Each person or family attending the luau is responsible for making and bringing one dish. If you would like to take off some of the cost and work burdens, assign each luau attendee a dish to bring and provide them with the recipe.
