Delicious!! This came out so good! The recipe says cook the salt pork until crisp but next time I'll really really let them get crunchy because all the other ingredients are very water heavy and ended up plumping the pork back up so it was kinda chewy in the finished product. Also I checked the rice at 25 minutes and the bottom of the rice was crunchy/starting to burn so I suggest checking before. Recipe was easier than I thought, rice was so tasty and soooo delicious!! I will be making this again and again.
