This started out as a 7.8 pound pork shoulder and after the trim, probably closer to 6 to 6-1/2 pounds. The rub was the usual Slabs Kyle Style but this was the first time I have done one with Peach. Started at 5:30 this morning and ended up around 6:30 tonight. All day at 235F.
Done. The bark was awesome!!!!!!!!!!!
Pulled! We waited about 30 minutes to let this sit. Moist, smelled great and I think half was gone from the family "sampling" before it hit the table.
The family agrees this was without a doubt the best pulled pork we have had. I can tell you throughout the day the smells from the cook caught the attention of a couple of neighbors. Yep, I’m braggin’. Yep, I’m proud of myself. Folks….. try some peach.
And brag you should! I'm already a big fan of peach wood, so when it comes to trying it, you're peach-ing to the choir (pun intended). I hope there wasn't too much fighting for the bark among the family members.
