    First time with a true wood only smoker. I was using a Traeger, and it was a bit more involved than 'set it and forget it'...But all in all I think it went well. I used the rub and bbq sauce recipes that I bought from this site and they were very good. Next time I will experiment with adding a...

    FINISHED PRODUCT! So here it is...You can see the whole butt just off the smoker. Look at that bark! OMG! That is a thing of beauty. I took a shot about mid pull, and you can see the contrast between the dark crusty bark and the pink inside. Next we have a pulled pork classic sandwich. Creamy...

    The Dr Pepper makes sense because of the cinnamon. In my own dry rub I always have cinnamon as an ingredient. I will have to try this, thanks.

    I make my own slaw typically. Very simple recipe of basic raw slaw mix hat you get at any store and I add mayo, honey, celery salt and cracked black pepper. That's it, very simple. It's sweet and creamy and cunchy and it lets the pork be the star.

    Thanks for the input Gary. I had a few ides for the taco... Some of the cabbage that I would use for the slaw that I normally put over my pulled pork sandwiches, but without the slaw sauce. This would take the place of lettuce on a normal taco and give it a crunch factor. Then I was thinking...

    See Wade, I was thinking of doing something similar where I would soak the butt in the root beer and then smoke it. I know that generally speaking you really don't need to soak/brine/marinate pulled pork but by doing it in this order I would get the bark as you say. Anyone else done this?

    This topic may not be a 'roll call' topic per se, but this area seems to get the most traffic so I thought I'd post it here. I am looking to pick some brains, get some ideas for recipe varients of pulled pork nachos and pulled pork tacos. I am interested to see what others in this forum think...

    New to the Forum! Nice to meet you all :)

    Thanks for all the kind replies. My focus is going to be on pulled pork, which in my opinion, is the king of smoked meats. I am going to to pulled pork sandwiches, pulled pork tacos, pulled pork nachos..possibly a few other variants. Anyone who has any ideas at all please share, as I am open to...
