This Weekend in Hedonism (Segment 3)

Hutch**’s Recipe Corner**

Cajun Pulled Pork

Ingredients

5 lbs Pork Shoulder or Boston Butt

Cajun Tasso Seasoning (see below)

12 oz Coca Cola or Dr Pepper, room temp

Directions

Rub pork completely with 1 cup of tasso seasoning. Discard any leftover seasoning that’s touched pork. Allow pork to rest, uncovered 6 - 12 hours in fridge. When ready to cook: Preheat oven to 220F. Pour room temp soda in roasting pan. Place tassoed pork in roasting pan. Cover with aluminum foil. Cook 8 - 12 hours or until “fork tender” - (usually 2 hours per pound and pork easily pulls apart.) Drain and place pork in a bowl and shred with fork.

Basic Tasso Seasoning – An Easy Cajun Rub

Ingredients

1 part each, by volume

Kosher Salt

Coarse Ground Black Pepper

Cayenne Powder

Granulated Garlic

Paprika

Brown Sugar

Directions

Mix well. Store tasso seasoning at room temp in an airtight container. Great as a rub or seasoning on any kind of meat.

Suggestions

Sandwiches/Sliders: Place shredded pork in hot dog, hamburger buns or dinner rolls. Store extra shredded pork in a sealed container in fridge.

Dry Style: Sprinkle with extra tasso seasoning.

Wet Style: Cover in your favorite BBQ sauce.

Tailgate Style: Wet or dry, then top with coleslaw and serve with your favorite beverage.

This recipe also works well with pork or beef ribs. Adjust times accordingly.

TurboDog or Amber Abita is suggested for the pulled pork
