I've been craving some pulled pork for a while now. I need a good recipe. Maybe with a mustard rub.
I could just google a recipe but I thought "what better site for a recipe than arfcom?" |
|
I always use allrecipes.com Seems to be pretty good. That's after asking ARFCOM of course.

Pulled pork is tangible proof that there IS a God, and that He loves us. |

Umm......real Texans eat beef!!!!!! |

Pulled pork is sorta pork roast that's been soaked in brine and molasses for a whole day then slow cooked for another whole day in the smoker.
|
|
Pork shoulder cooked at about 275 degrees over a pecanwood bed of coals for 10+ hours. Rub it down with a little salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Shred it from the bone with a fork. Pile it on a toasted bun with pickle relish, lettuce and a dab of your favorite BBQ sauce.
Mais cher! Ca cest bon manger! |

My lunch today! Damn it was GOOOOOOOOOOOD! |
|
|
God, I love it when I have to go to TN for work. If I could ever figger out where to get it for breakfast, I'd have it three meals a day. |

After the fact that there is beer. |

Yeah pulled pork in NY is different. It's like that wood which is nothing more than compressed sawdust. It's probably nasty pork bits that they press together then they actually try to make it look like a rib slab! Like somehow there is a boneless pig somewhere. false advertising BS. Still good though with Tabasco!!!!!
Actually pork is the one and ONLY reason why i could never be a Muslim! I'm OK with the Four wives, I get to be king of the house, Beheading infidels, Blowing up shit, but no pork??? Fuck that! |
|
That's fine, just don't pass it off as BBQ |

I take a pork shoulder roast and debone it. Then I cut the chunks into fist size bits. I rub them with fresh black pepper and sea salt. If you like spice you can add some crushed red pepper at that stage.I then get my cast iron skillet as hot as hell, then I sere all sides of the chunks. I just sere the meat, I don't cook it all the way.
Then I take a cup of apple cider vinegar, one cup of white vinegar, some brown sugar, mustard powder, black pepper, salt,garlic powder and crushed red pepper. I put all of this in the slow cooker plus the meat and let it cook overnight. Check to make sure it is cooked then shred with forks and put on bun. Not very exact, I never write it down. It comes close to ok Eastern NC style BBQ without a fire pit. |
|
I use a real simple dry rub: salt, pepper, and some chile powder. Make sure you don't use anything with sugar in it or it will burn and form a nasty crust on your meat.
Then I put it on the smoker using oak or hickory at about 225 degrees. It is done when the pork gets to about 190-200 internal temperature. I make a special sauce for it too. 32 oz ketchup 1 cup sugar 1 cup lemon juice 2/3 cup apple cider vinegar 1 stick butter 2 tbsp black pepper 2 tbsp rep pepper flakes (adjust too taste) Bring all that to a boil for 10 or 15 mins. |

I've been waiting 20 years to hear a Texan admit that they don't know shit from applebutter about barbecue. You mean to tell me cows are good for something besides making the miracle whip that is required for nice creamy coleslaw to put on my pulled pork sammich? Yer shittin' me, right? |

Ever heard of Tbones and Sirloin mmmmmmmm!!!!!!! |

good god- not knowing what pulled pork is-
by the way you can do the same with turkey breast or beef too I just put it on low in the croc pot with 1/2 cup water or so and a pack of liptond onion soup mix. seems to come out fine 8 hrs later. I like the idea of cutting up first though- might help cook more even. |

WOULD ALL OF YOU KINDLY STFU?!?!?!
j/k Seriously, you're making me hungry as Hell...my mouth is really watering now...I'm stuck here in Kuwait without a way to get any pulled pork...I haven't had any since April of last year and won't get any until I get back Home around the 5th of May. My favorite "food fantasy" these days is hitting Arthur Bryant's BBQ in Kansas City right after I get back and having them fix me the biggest pulled pork sandwich that they possibly can and washing it down with 3 or 4 Boulevard Unfiltered Wheat beers... Damn, I'm "jonesin'" for that stuff... 34 days and counting... |
|
could send some to ya...but it might be pulled maggots by the time it got there...
|
|
Appreciate the thought, but pork and pork products are banned in Kuwait and most muslim countries...even if they are rotten and loaded with maggots. |
|
|
What?!!!! Not even SPAM? I would die without pork in my diet. |
||
|
Chicken, Beef, Mutton, Goat and Camel...no Pork. PERIOD. I'm so fucking tired of Chicken and Beef...and NO BBQ places over here... |
|||
|
Like chicken of course. |

Mmmm. Pulled pork. I haven't made any in far too long. I followed Alton Brown's recipe, and it waas some of the best barbeque I've ever had.
Mix up some molasses, pickling salt, and water and soak a pork butt in it for 8-12 hours, refrigerated, of course. Take it out and pat it dry. Make up a dry-rub with cumin, fennel, coriander , chili powder, onion powder, and paprika. Put the rub in a sifter or shaker, and shake it all over the pork butt, patting it on as you go. I recommend gloves so the rub doesn't stick all over your hand. Smoke with hardwood of your choice for about 12-14 hours at 210 degrees. I use hickory, and give it a good heavy fistful of wood chips about every two hours until I've given it three doses. Then just let it cook until it's ready to fall off the bone. Wrap it up in foil and let it sit for about half an hour before you start pulling. |

Well, you know what I say...FUCK THEM.... We're there trying to help their sorry asses out, and they won't let our guys eat pork....goat fuckers... |

Back to the subject. If you use hickory or pecan wood, don't use the dark inner wood. Just use the lighter colored wood that is outboard from the center. The dark part will leave a bitter taste while the outer wood leaves a sweeter taste.
|
|
Didn't know that. Thanks for the tip! |
|
|
You'll need a Tarheel recepie for a vinegar based suace for that! But that looks tasteeeeeeeee |
|
|
Post a recipe. I'd like to try it. |
|
|
Holy crap. You have a wireless meat alarm?
This is truly a miraculous age! Does NASA have remote grilling capability? |

Ok so now I know......but why is it called "pulled" Pork, and why do you you shred it?
|
|
You pull it apart, either with forks or your hands. When you shred it, you get a yummy mix of bbq sauce and pork that's so tasty you'd walk over your own grandmother for it. |
|
|
I don't know what pulled pork is either, but I'm a Yankee (its expected). You, on the other hand, are a Texan...What's your excuse? |
|
|
I made the Mr. Brown recipe a few weeks ago and it was amazing. Everyone here loved it. I would also make sure that every two hours you spray it with apple Juice that makes it very tasty. Here is the recipe. MR. Brown

|
Thanks! I'll try some this weekend. |

|
