So Mrs C and the boy were craving some pulled pork samiches.....So picked up a BB for the task at hand....I followed my go to simplified approach....



I was in a hurry so didn't score the top or use mustard as we were out.....I think I commandeered the yellow for the shop and knives so need to restock... Here it is on the RT at the GT 265.

Added a pan for the finishing sauce and a probe to monitor the progress....

Progress shot about 4 or so hours in...man its looking good!

Since I was using the RFX, here is a view of the INT, you can see the slow down or stall at the 150 degrees, its cool to see in charted vs just talked about..... I ran this one a bit over 6 hours for bark....

The bark and it ready to boat....

In the boat and covered till pull temp time....

I pulled this one a bit earlier because Mrs likes some more texture....Love the chart, ie the quick climb after covering and then the hold.......I did rush the hold but I had hungry eyes staring me down.....

Pulled from holding and ready to pull......Man oh man, tasty!

All pulled, salted and finish sauce prepped. As I mentioned I left larger pieces for a more firm texture, this also helps with reheats on the next day or if frozen.....

Bingo, a toasted brioche bun, a slice of white American, pork, a bit of kinders gold, some carmalized red onions and some bread and butter pickles.....Side of fresh cut slaw by Mrs. C.....

Just a nice Sunday cook and a rewarding reminder of why we BBQ/Smoke meat....It fills the "stomach"!....Also simple is relaxing, relaxing is smooth, and smooth is TASTY!!!

Thanks WinterR! Its been a while since we have done one and it was a comfort food after a long work week!
That's a great looking meal!
Thanks phil!
 
Left over time....For last nights meal I dropped a portioned vac pac in a 145 degree SV water pot for an hour to heat it back up, then in a pan to toss it with some Kinders gold....Then it was joined by Mrs. C's home made bacon mac and some corn bread muffins with whipped honey butter......

This is the reason I usually leave larger pieces and not pull it fully the first day. The larger pieces help with texture and taste on the follow up days..... PP $$ shot!

THAT'S THE KIND OF SANNY DREAMS ARE MADE OF COURTNEY, SOME FINE WORK BY YOU AND THE MISSUS! I'M A CARAMELIZED ONION ADDICT AND COMBO'D WITH THE CHEESE IT ALMOST MAKES UP FOR NOT HAVING THE SLAW ON THE BUN, ALMOST. YOU'VE INSPIRED ME TO GO OUT TO THE GARAGE AND DO A LITTLE SHOPPING AT FREEZERMART, PRETTY SURE BUTTS ARE ON SALE!
 
Dang that looks great. But you put cheese on the sammie so not Kosher anymore.
Thanks Pshr...A the cheese on the bottom is a structural thing....it keeps the bun from getting "mush" so its a minimum requirment....lol

Much appreciated Ray! Yea the caramelized onions are a real thing! And a the cheese smooths out the richness for sure. I usually put the slaw on top and Mrs. C gave me crap and even asked if I was feeling alright....LOL Next time.... I did alternate a samich bite with a slaw bite though....

Oh and love freezermart shopping everything on sale

Much appreciated Astra! The vac pack once cooled and then SV heat up is a money maker for leftovers!

In some regards it's even better because the favors better set in the SV session.... Many Michelin Star placed do this for their steaks, i.e. they sear the day before and SV bath and finish in a pan with butter day of....
Very nice, and I could chew up a couple of those and the left over meal..... top notch.

Many thanks David! We only got one day of leftovers as the daughter grabbed the remaining vac pack to take home with her for dinner for a couple of days...
Looks delicious! That Mrs. C puts out some great sides!
Thanks Brian, and yes she does.....she is a keeper for sure!!
 
Boy that looks terrific Courtney. I haven't smoked/cooked anything outside for about six months. That PP is making me remedy that.
Point for sure
Chris
