Hello all!
I am getting ready for the upcoming 4th of July celebrations! We are going to a DAY pool party/ NIGHT BBQ dinner and I have volunteered to bring pulled pork. I have followed the threads on here, so I think I will be good with the smoking part, but my dilemma is what to do with the pork during the day?
I plan on getting up at midnight-1am (depending on how big my pork butt is...purchase tbd) so that it will be done in the morning. After I pull it off, I will wrap the foiled meat in a couple of towels and stick in a cooler and head to the party. So lets assume this is 10am... I read that you want this to be wrapped tightly for at least an hour before you pull it....but what if I have about 8 hours of grace time before dinner? Should I leave this in the cooler for that long, or stick it in a fridge and then re-heat closer to dinner?
Please let me know your tricks!
thanks!
