Independence Day - Texas Styled Pulled Pork Sliders

[devildawg]

We knew we were having a smaller gathering so I decided on a 9lbs Pork Butt for the crowd. I liked the Texas Style method that Malcom Reed posted and decided to give it a try. We served on sweet Hawaiian rolls with slaw and mustard potato salad. I mixed a potion with HEB Texas style bbq sauce and it had a nice bite.

Hope you enjoy the q-view as much as we enjoyed the food.


Recipe: HEB Pork Butt 9.13lbs with equal parts coarse salt and pepper. No mustard or oil binders used.
Cooker: Kamado Joe Classic II using Kamado Joe Big Block XL lump and Mesquite chunks for flavor. I also bought a Flame Boss 500 to try to help mind the fires overnight so I could sleep. Yes, it’s a bit like cheating, and no I don’t care. LOL.
