Dual Butts

[Jim Lampe]

two 8 lb bone-in butts

apple and hickory wood for smoke

one for my freezer, one for our neighbors, Jon & Michelle

pulled and served with cheddar & provolone/mozzarella and a little sauce by Stubbs

...topped with creamy slaw with roasted cauliflower dusted with California seasoned pepper

pretty good pork... I tried something different this time around.
As always, I use Kevin Kroger's recipe he conjured up for Jane Cherry
but I've always rinsed off the salt after 20 minutes THEN rubbed the butts.
This time, I left the kosher salt on and applied the rub.
Definitely a saltier pulled pork sandwich, but still veryVERY good.
Thank you all for your time! Enjoy your Labor Day fellow Americans!

Very nice looking pulled pork Jim. Is 20 minutes long enough to do anything? When I salt steaks I let the salt sit for 30-45 minutes depending on thickness. With a pork butt being as think as it is 20 minutes to me sounds too short of a time.
