Looks great. Just curious, how sweet was it? Between the heavy Syrup in Canned peaches and sugar, I would think it would be needing a Vinegar Finishing Sauce...JJ
Thanks Jimmy, actually it was not that sweet at all....but I do want to start doing a finishing sauce. Just wanted to not add too much changes in case it all went wrong and then I am stuck as to what messed it up.

Do you have a good recipe for a finishing sauce?

Great looking pulled pork and that bark is beautiful...nice job!!
Thanks sauced!
Clear plate, no plate, heck you could have used a paper grocery bag to serve that baby. Looks really good for here.

Point for sure

Here you go...JJ

Tangy Pulled Pork Finishing Sauce

This is more of an Eastern North Carolina style Finishing Sauce...

2 C Apple Cider Vinegar
2T Worcestershire Sauce or more to taste
1/4C Brown Sugar
1T Smoked Paprika
2 tsp Granulated Garlic
2 tsp Granulated Onion
2 tsp Fine Grind Black Pepper
1 tsp Celery Salt
1 tsp Cayenne Pepper or Red Pepper Flake. Add more if you like Heat.
1/2 tsp Grnd Allspice

Combine all and whisk well. This is a thin sauce, bring just to a simmer and remove from heat. FAdjust sweetness by adding Brn Sugar or additional Vinegar as desired...Makes about 2 Cups.
 
Here is a finishing sauce from soflaquer soflaquer 15 years ago.. It is still my go to ..

Oh my that is some tasty looking pork. I’m thinking I might have tried to slice the cornbread and pile the pp and slaw right in there. So yum! Mandatory thumbs up.

Didn't think of using the cornbread as a bun....crap too late now but worth a try in the future for sure

Excellent job on the bark.

The peach juice injection sounds to die to for too.
Thanks secondhand for the like, and I thought the same when I saw it.

Actually there was a specific rub and finishing sauce to go with it, but was more work than I wan't to put into at the time. Maybe next time I will do the whole deal

Looks Great, John!!
Making that Rec Tec Talk!!!
