Comments (14)Well, here is what I am doing. I have it in the crockpot now. Everyone's recipes sound good, but I had all of these ingredients on hand. Didn't want to make the trip into town if I didn't have to. I made it simpler by coating the pork with the rub mixture, then placing in the crockpot and adding some of the basting sauce. I made the BBQ sauce, too, and will probably mix some of it with the pork before I freeze it. I'll let you know how it turns out. Barbecued Pulled Pork Sandwiches with Homemade BBQ Sauce Courtesy Emeril Lagasse 1 boneless pork butt, about 4 pounds 3 tablespoons dark brown sugar 2 tablespoons Essence 1 tablespoon salt 1 tablespoon ground cumin 1 tablespoon paprika 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper 1 tablespoon cayenne Wet Mop Basting Sauce, recipe follows Barbecue Sauce, recipe follows Place the pork in a baking dish. In a bowl, combine the sugar, Essence, salt, cumin, paprika, pepper, and cayenne. Rub the seasoning evenly over the pork to coat. Cover with plastic and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. Preheat an oven or smoker to 225 degrees F. Bring the pork to room temperature and place in a roasting pan, fat side up. Slow cook in the oven, basting with the Wet Mop Basting Sauce every 45 minutes, until tender and the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F. (The cooking should take about 6 to 7 hours.) Remove from the oven and let rest for 20 to 30 minutes. With a knife and fork or two forks, pull the meat apart into small slices or chunks. Toss with the Barbecue Sauce, to taste, and divide among the hamburger buns. Top with coleslaw. Serve with additional Barbecue Sauce on the side. Wet Mop Basting Sauce: 1 cup white vinegar 1 cup apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon dark brown sugar 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper 1 tablespoon salt The night before you cook the pork, combine all the ingredients in a large bowl and whisk well. Refrigerate and let the flavors blend overnight. Yield: 2 1/4 cups Barbecue Sauce: 1 cup apple cider vinegar 1 cup ketchup 3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar 1 tablespoon yellow mustard 1 tablespoon molasses 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon dried crushed red pepper In a bowl, combine all the ingredients and whisk well to dissolve the sugar. Place in a squeeze bottle and dress the pulled pork sandwiches to taste. Yield: about 2 cups Linda...See Morepre-cooked Pork Shoulder... now what?
Comments (9)Linda, It was already pre-cooked. It says pork shoulder and in with the hams, so it might be a boston butt, I'll have to look when I get home. Rob, would you just warm it like ham, and serve with white beans and corn bread? that sounds pretty good... Or do I have to treat it just like ham... and how different from ham will it taste? I was really in the mood for some pulled pork, but I don't know what I need to do to it. Can I make it into pulled pork, and if so, how? Do I re-cook it? In a slow cooker (mine is too old and too samll, but I could cut some) or in a dutch oven? with BBQ Sauce on slow heat? Or do I just get out the forks and try to pull it as is? I think that might be like trying to pull a boiled ham... Teresa, I think DH might like your option 1 if I can figure out how to execute... and I greatly appreciate the advice on how to freeze it......See MorePork Butts
Comments (3)Ok so you don't want to can any of them right? Then for sausage our favorite seasonings are salt, sage and coarse ground black pepper to taste. But many folks don't like sage. If you don't then check out this seasoning mix from food.com. We used it this year but left out the red pepper flakes. Pretty good results. http://www.food.com/recipe/homemade-sausage-seasoning-blend-102718 As for smoking - gonna cold smoke or hot smoke?
