FINISHING SAUCE (for Pulled Pork)

[smokenhotinnh]

I tried this finishing sauce on a Boston Butt last Sunday. My wife's reaction to trying it was so overwhelming that I thought she was lying (to make me feel good) until my son tried it and said it was the best pulled pork he had ever had. When I finally gave it a shot it was AWESOME. Thanks for posting it!

Most pull it at 200, wrap it up and let rest an hour or two.

Quick question..... how many pounds of PP does this recipe cover?  Is this a standard amount that you would use for a 8-9 lbs pork butt?

Finally did my first butt on the smoker.  I've only been smoking meat for right about one year and never done a pork butt.  Also, being from South Texas, not a fan of things with a vinegar base.  I made this sauce just like the directions called for but doubled it.  Took my goodies to our friends house and fed six people.  Wow, if you have not made this "special sauce", make it and try it.  It's awesome.  I'm not even a fan of vinegar but wow, this is some good stuff.Thanks to the OP for posting this.

Try my version. Lots less vinegar and delicious...The celery seed gives it a nice flavor...

Hi Jeff,

Just wanted to let you know your post was well worth it! My entire family and myself thoroughly enjoyed our pulled pork after an 11 hour smoke. Delicious my good sir!!

I'm not a big fan of vinegar , cole slaw or BBQ sauce (in general). I do inject though.

I just pull the pork and pour the juices from the foil over it. "On to a bun and done" for me.

Love the finishing sauce I just pourd it all on my oulled pork butt and I have tryed it with out it but everybody seems to think its better not sure if I was suppose to use all the sauce or just put a little and let people put there own on?

I am going to give this a shot for the kids birthday party. Do you let the sauce cool before applying to the freshly pulled pork? Also you just generously spread and mix in the pulled pork once it's shredded ? Sounds awesome can't wait to try

I'd make the sauce ahead of time and let it sit, melding the flavors together.  Eastern NC bbq sauce is a very similar sauce,  i make mine a week ahead and sit it on the counter. At least once a day i'll go by and give it a good shake.  Just about any NC BBQ joint you go into will have this type sauce on the table at room temp. to add to your pork if you want it. The flavor gets better with age.

How long will this sauce keep?  I made some at Easter and have half-a-bottle left, which has been sitting in the fridge ever since.  Think it's still good enough to use?

Did you ever get an answer to your question? I was wondering the same thing. I cooked 2 - 10lb butts a couple of weeks ago and used about 1 1/2 times the recipe. Turned out pretty good.

Thanks
