    Do you Brine Pork Butts/Shoulders/Boston Butts?

    I opted not to brine (because of time constrictions) and I'm going to rub them with mustard and then a simple spice rub (corriander, cumin, brown sugar, kosher salt, red pepper, black pepper, cayenne pepper, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika).  I grind my own spices in a...

    Hello from Moro Oregon

    Well I'm just about to fire up the smoker and put on about 70 lbs of pork butt.  I'll take pics along the way and post them along the way.

    Do you Brine Pork Butts/Shoulders/Boston Butts?

    I see a lot of people saying that they don't brine their butts so I'm going to skip that step which will allow me time to do pulled pork instead of sliced pork (from the sirloin roasts and rib roast that I already have).  I'll get some picks and keep everyone updated on the progress. thanks for...

    Do you Brine Pork Butts/Shoulders/Boston Butts?

    I'm going to be smoking some pork butts for an upcoming wrestling tournament (fundraiser and hospitality room).  I need to have them done smoking by 0700 Saturday morning and I won't be able to pick them up until tomorrow morning.  I have plenty of time to smoke them however I'm worried about...

    Need some URGENT helpful ideas for a wrestling tournament fundraiser/hospitality room.

    Yeah I was pretty upset.  I take pride in providing a quality product (even if I'm donating it), and I don't like to server "expiriments" or untested recipes to groups.  I'll try things at home on a weekend until I feel like I have it mastered.  If we were in a better place financially or if I...

    Need some URGENT helpful ideas for a wrestling tournament fundraiser/hospitality room.

    Thanks for all the help, I appreciate it and I am enjoying noising around the forum--lots of good info here.   So question number two is how would you go about cooking these for sliced or chopped sandwiches?

    Need some URGENT helpful ideas for a wrestling tournament fundraiser/hospitality room.

    I'm pretty much stuck with this cut.  I may go out and buy some boston butt on my own and donate that, but what about smoking it at a hotter temp, cooking the roasts to temp and then slicing them to serve sliced sandwiches?  Or chopping it and serving chopped sandwiches?

    It looks more like a roast than a rack of ribs.  Here's some pics of a package that I opened.

    Need some URGENT helpful ideas for a wrestling tournament fundraiser/hospitality room.

    I'm an assistant wrestling coach at a small school and last year I volunteered to make pulled pork sandwiches for the coach/officials hospitality room.  I smoked 60-70 pounds of Boston Butt and it turned out great.  Everyone has asked me to do it again and to smoke some more to be sold as a...
