Hawaiian Word of the Day

Hawaiian Word of the Day: June 4th

If you barbecue a lot, you probably already know today's word of the day. P?lehu means to broil. Although it most correctly means broiling as you would sweet potatoes, breadfruit or bananas placed on hot embers. We often used p?lehu to describe meat that has been broiled.
