Pulled Pork on the #2
« on: September 11, 2016, 06:15:26 PM »
I had a 14# pork butt in the freezer that needed some help so I brined it overnight Thursday in prep for a Saturday meal. Did a simple brine of 1 gal water, 1 c salt, 1c brown sugar, 2T onion powder, 1T garlic powder, 2T Old Bay seasoning. Friday evening I rinsed, put yellow mustard on, and used some Schultz' Gourmet rub from Costco. Then in to the #2 with a water pan and 6 oz red oak on Friday night about 2000. At 1600 the next day, it reached 190 deg IT. Put it in a cooler wrapped with foil and towels for about 1.5 hours. Tasty results happened.  :D

No one did sauce except my sister in law. We had sourdough biscuits with it and she made a sandwich with it. I reserve butter and honey for my sourdough biscuits.  8)

That looks amazing! I'm going to do a pork butt tomorrow night, hopefully the results will be as good as yours. I've been able to perfect brisket on my #2... Pork butts have been good, but not perfect.

Looks awesome!


I've never found a butt bigger than 10lbs in the north east. typically they are bone out. is this a bone in and does that add to the weight?

I have been told get over to costco but have not checked their yet. 10lbs tend to be enough  anyway
