Hello everyone...I had half a butt leftover so I decided to try some pulled pork today. First time smoking a butt. I was speaking with drewham last night about ideas and here is the fruition. I started by cutting the hard fat and liberally spreading turbinado, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, and course salt.
. The first picture is last night, the second the meat after sitting in the fridge uncovered. I cooked it at 250 till it hit 145. I started at 8 this morning and it hit 145 about 5 hours later. I placed my homemade bbq sauce on it and covered the pan with saran wrap and aluminum and threw it back in the smoker.
this is before the bbq sauce
this is after. Then I threw it back in the smoker...I got ansy and pulled the meat at 190. It was past 6 and I had a hungry family.
I then pulled it... It pulled beautifully
Earlier in the day I made a cabbage slaw with cabbage, raddish, red onion, carrots, red wine vinegar, mayo, gojuchang, salt, pepper, and sugar and a little honey. I cut a fresh jalapeno thin on my mandolin and assembled my tacos, topping them with a little bit of my homemade bbq sauce again.
They were literally the best thing I've ever smoked, never have I ever seen my wife ravish something like that. And to top it off I made a carrot cheesecake for dessert
