Pulled Pork
Pulled Pork:
2 - 7lb pork butts (I bought a 14lb bag at Costco)
1 cup Mustard or Sriracha
1 cup braising liquid (I used sparkling apple juice but you can use beer, apple cider or plain apple juice)
2 cups Pork Rub:
* 1 cup packed brown sugar
* 4 tbsp. kosher salt
* 4 tbsp. paprika (use smoked paprika if using oven for only)
* 1.5 T garlic powder
* 1.5 T onion powder
* 1.5 T ground cumin
* 1 T black pepper
* 1 T liquid smoke (If using oven only)
Direction:
Pat dry your pork and score the fat
Rub in the mustard or sriracha
Generously season with the pork rub
Smoker:
Prep your smoker and set to 250 degrees and place your pork directly on the rack.
Oven:
Set your oven to 250 and place your pork on a rack over a foil lined sheet pan
Insert your meat thermometer in thickest part and smoke/bake until an internal of 165 has been reached (about 4 hours)
Transfer to a steamer pan, pour in 1 cup braising liquid.
Cover tightly and return to your smoker or oven set at 210 for 6-8 hours until an internal of 203 has been reached (I do this right before bed and take it out in the morning)
Allow to rest covered for 2 hours
Remove the liquid (do not discard) shred your meat, then pour the liquid back in to your shredded pork to your desired consistency
Freeze up to 6 month. Use in sandwiches or soups or over tacos or nachos
