    Best way to infuse flavor when reheating over cooked pork.

    Long story short I tried to cook a pork butt uncovered the whole time which was a first for me. I had to transfer it to the oven once 2a.m. rolled around and I was losing steam.

    Do I Brine a Boston Butt?

    Do I Brine a Boston Butt?
