Walking through the grocery store the other day, I thought, what can I get to throw on the smoker? Decided to do some pulled pork yesterday, since it had been awhile and there was none left in the freezer.
Asked the butcher for a pork butt, he said they had picnic shoulder roasts on sale. Wasn't quite sure what it was gonna be, but I said sure, since they were only .99 a lb. Got this 10 pounder and seasoned it with a homemade rub. Wrapped it up and left it sit in the fridge overnight.
The next morning, took it out of the wrap and found it had a nice syrup like coating on it, from the brown sugar I guess.
This is what it looked like pre-cook.
Fired up the WSM and put the roast on. Here are a few pics of it getting happy. Used Kingsford blue and a few chunks of apple and hickory.
Time to foil this guy after about 6 hours of smoking. Put it back on the smoker til probe tender. Here it is coming out of the foil awhile later.
Removed the bone and started breaking it down.
Shredded with a couple forks.
Laid out on a cookie sheet to cool down and get packaged for later meals.
My wife and I sampled quite a bit of it while it was cooling. It was very tasty.
It was a good day.
Thanks for looking.
