Let's talk pulled pork, guys. Specifically, Boston butts. Corey and Jeff recommend this as the "starter" meat for new smokers; it is the easiest to use and hardest to mess up.
The guys spend some time discussing home-made rubs and quality store bought rubs, get into a conversation on the differences in KC and NC styles, and breaks down the "money muscle" before offering a litany of good tips for pulled pork prep.
Corey and Jeff's weekly tips:
What to do with those pulled pork leftovers:
Q&A:
Q. Easiest Cut of Pork to do? And Why Apple Juice in an Injection?
Boston Butt is the easiest! Apple juice helps with moisture and evaporates slower than water. So you can mix it with dry rubs, butter, etc, then inject it. The juice will cook out, leaving the rest behind.
Q. Is there anything worse than people asking “When will it be done?”
Agreed. It is done when it is done. You can’t force a schedule on good smoking.
Q. I found a great recipe online, but the rub is a bit salty.
Maybe that’s Texas style; they tend to be salt and pepper based, and built more for beef. On pork, they don’t always work as well. Try a brown sugar based rub. And ALWAYS taste rubs or sauces before using them!
Q. Low and slow vs high and fast? Stick burner or pellet? Good rib recipes?
