I'm going to smoke a pork butt. Prep will start today and I'll be smoking it for 14 hours starting tonight.
I soak the butt in a apple cider vinegar, apple juice, bbq sauce mixture for several hours 1st. Then I give a huge coat of
@RamFan503 's pork butt rub. That stuff makes the best bark on the outside of a pork butt I've ever tasted... it's just so awesome.
I'll smoke it on a low temp (like 210 degrees or so) for about 14 hours. I use apple wood chunks for my smoke.
After that, I'll pull it off the smoker (I use a big green egg) and put the butt in a cooler for a few hours to let the meat rest.
Then I will shred the meat. It will just fall apart when cooked properly and all the fat will be cooked away.
No bbq sauce is needed for this stuff. It tastes amazing just by itself.
We make pulled pork sandwiches with it... and in our house that means adding a big glob of homemade coleslaw inside the sandwich.
So that's what's gonna be going down here while I root for Opie to upset the panthers tomorrow. God I hate the panthers. GO OPIE GO!!!!
