After a nice rub and smoke, I pulled it at 165* to wrap up in foil.

That bone slid out and this shredded like nothing else! I hit with a finishing sauce and we chowed. A huge success!

Good job pulling that pork, nice big tender chunks!

Yeah it was way more intimidating than it actually was. I dressed it with the BDSE sauce which is now my new go to sauce. That sauce was amazing.

 

[humdinger]

Who's BDSE sauce did you use? I've seen multiple versions around the forum. thanks.

 

[mighty quinn]

I used PGSmoker's BDSE BBQ sauce. I swear the stuff should be commercially sold! It got great reviews from the family.

Now try to convince your idiot friends that the red looking pork is really cooked?

But we know, don't we?

Good luck and good smoking.
