My Simple Smoked Pulled Pork Butt (AKA Smoked Pork Shoulder) is a go-to any time I am looking to feed a hungry crowd and don’t want too much fuss. With only 3 ingredients, you’re looking at some good, classic BBQ with plenty of flavor.
RECIPE HERE: heygrillhey.co...
The reason I call this smoked pulled pork butt “simple” is because of how little effort it takes. This recipe doesn’t require any fancy injections, tools, spritzing concoctions, or wrapping (optional) to have it come out absolutely perfect every. single. time. All you need to make this recipe a success is a good pork shoulder, my famous homemade sweet BBQ rub, good smoke, and plenty of time.
Most smoked pork butt recipes call for a bone-in pork shoulder, sometimes also labeled a Boston butt roast or a pork butt. All of these labels are for the exact same cut of pork.
None of them actually come from the butt end of the pig (which can definitely be confusing), but from the upper part of the shoulder. The pork butt, or pork shoulder, has many overlapping and hard working muscle groups that are bound together with tight connective tissue.
That tight tissue makes this cut particularly well suited for smoking. It would be very difficult to simply slice and serve a pork shoulder roast that wasn’t cooked low and slow to break down those tight muscles and connective fibers. You’d end up chewing for a long time and not getting anywhere.

If I'm using a pellet grill, like i did this past weekend, i usually put it on at 180⁰F to get more smoke flavor for the first couple hours, then crank it up to 225 until it hits the stall somewhere between 150-170. I like to wrap it at that point and turn it up to 250-275, depending on time, which lets the fats really render and you catch rhe juices. When i take it off the smoker, i like to pour the juices into a fat separator, and when we are done eating, i reintroduce the separate fat juices and vacuum seal the leftovers. Reheat by dropping it into a sous vide or just hot water, and it tastes just like it was fresh.

Sounds great! Sounds like a beef brisket recipe.

I cut the roast into baseball size cubes to reduce cooking time by alot.

@stevecagle2317 2 месяца назад

I like to vacuum seal and freeze it for later. Great to add to baked beans and plain old pinto or great northerns. When cooking from dry beans, I would season and cook them with ham hocks, then add the pulled pork at the end to keep from ivercooking it.

I'm makin mac n cheese and pulled leftover smoked pork butt tonight... That's a meal by itself..

@DaveTheGM 13 дней назад

Mine is usually a 6-8 hour cook at around 275. I'm still working on my fire and temperature control. I usually keep it simple with a 50/50 salt and pepper mixture, so my smoke makes or breaks it.

@paul756uk2 2 месяца назад

I put my first one on at midnight and the family came over at 5pm but i got the dreaded temperature stall so had to take it off at slightly below the ideal internal temperature but it was fine. Never knew about this beforehand.

@Lee-yy2lr 2 месяца назад

I smoke 2 shoulders about every 3 months. I never wrap mine at anytime like many people do. I have a large offset barrel smoker and only use whole logs instead of chips. Pretty much smoke them just like you do and they are always perfect.

You should try mopping with mango habanero juice. After first 3hrs, start mop every 1hr.. 1pepper to 4cups =32oz mango juice . Bring to low boil 5mins. Let stand 5mins

@russ350r 2 месяца назад

Had to play it back several times to see if I was missing something. At around :38 seconds, it sounds like you said that you need a boneless pork shoulder for this recipe. Did you mean to say bone-in?

@Heygrillhey 2 месяца назад

Either will work fine!

@-.Steven 2 месяца назад

Right about 2:26 you can observe the removal of the shoulder bone.

@mrwilliamcmartin 2 месяца назад

I’ve made pulled pork pizza with the extra. Homemade crust with some bbq sauce then the meat. I top with Colby Jack cheese then sliced onions on top of the cheese. Anything goes. However you like pizza.

@MrRockinbob77 2 месяца назад

I usually wrap but wanted to try this to get the bark. An 8 pound butt only took 7 hours at 225 degrees. Wondering what went wrong.. used a pitboss austin xl.

@jimevans4755 Месяц назад

Only been smoking for a couple years now and have found that when I smoke brined chicken then after resting I put in the fridge the smoke flavor seems to be drawn deeper into the meat. Would pork respond the same or does the bark prevent a deep smoke flavor?

@urtypicalguy 2 месяца назад

I did a 10lb bone-in shoulder at 250F for about 10.5 hours. I even wrapped it once it hit 175F internal. However, I noticed that the piece opposite of the bone-in side was much tougher like it was overcooked. How can I prevent that from happening?

@P-Cap Месяц назад

After cooking do you refreeze the meat or refrigerate it ?

@Heygrillhey Месяц назад

I do either of I have extra!

@johncoffey8645 2 месяца назад

2 more pro tips... #1 You can put your seasoning in the coffee maker, run apple cider vinegar through the cycle. It cleans the maker, and the brine is easily injectable. Taking out the extra seasoning #2 Those pieces of fat/gristle are perfect treats for Dogs, cats, even chickens. 😜🤙

@mamaduck27 2 месяца назад

Would cutting the meat in half reduce the cook time?

@Heygrillhey 2 месяца назад

Yes!

@S_R231 2 месяца назад

Thanks for these 101 guides. Yet to start smoking or even barbecuing - got a new Kamado boxed in the garage waiting on a new deck to be built. As a result I've only just found your channel in the past 3 weeks. Great content, brilliant production - I even enjoy the voice overs 😉 Question: Is there any drippings or even a wet pan which could be placed under (lower) the shoulder to create au jus to toss the shred into? Again, I've 0% exp. with this but thinking that it might be a way to go on something which is actually a very lean meat.

@Heygrillhey 2 месяца назад

For sure! A pan underneath would catch a ton of juice.

@lettingthebearout7528 12 дней назад

If it is just too large could I have the butcher cut it in half. Would it still work?

@Heygrillhey 12 дней назад

Yep! Sometimes we’ll do this or butterfly them to get them to cook faster and have extra bark.

@SinisterMD 2 месяца назад

Don't forget about Kalua pork. Pozole is another option.

@davidblack5551 2 месяца назад

How long does it usually have to cook for ??

@Heygrillhey 2 месяца назад

It depends on how big the shoulder is, but a good estimate is 1.5-2hrs per pound.

@fredschaffer7330 2 месяца назад

No wrap pulled pork.... Interesting. Gonna have to try it! Did you inject with anything before you smoked it?

@Heygrillhey 2 месяца назад

Nope!

It was an experiment. We'll b back to live in a few videos.

@smokinjoeprestwood5889 2 месяца назад

If you have a PBC(pit barrel cooker)your cooking time will be drastically reduced. There will be no sacrifice in tenderness or flavor.

I have three drum cookers. One PBC, one salt city drum, and one I built myself!

@@Heygrillhey Well from a long time viewer it's much less enjoyable to watch. It feels like it's an old video just being rehashed as opposed to something new and refreshing.

@Bchams2012 2 месяца назад

What if I'm using a 15lb boneless--Cook time?

@Heygrillhey 2 месяца назад

About 1.5hrs per pound at 225.

@Bchams2012 2 месяца назад

@@Heygrillhey what if it’s 2-7.5 lb that I’m cooking at the same time? Lol. Opened the package and found 2 separate ones. I used the mustard and hey grill hey sweet rub. I’m ready to rock n roll

@Heygrillhey 2 месяца назад

Then the time would be based off of 7.5lbs! Sometimes I'll cut those bigger ones in half to shorten the cook time like that.
