Barbecue Pulled Pork Recipe

Not all Pulled Pork is the same. This "low and slow", smoked to perfection pulled pork recipe by the BBQ Pit Boys puts those pressure cooker versions to shame. Serve up this recipe at your next special Barbecue, and you'll become a Barbecuing legend. -BBQ Pit Boys

Recipe:
8-10lbs.of Boston Butt (4-5lbs. each pork shoulder)
Your favorite Dry Rub
Your favorite Barbecue Sauce

This is an easy to do recipe for "real" BBQ Pulled Pork, done on a basic backyard BBQ smoker.

All you need for this Pulled Pork Barbecue is one or two 4-6lb. Boston Butts (commonly called Pork Shoulder), and some of your favorite Dry Rub and Barbecue Sauce.

After trimming off the excess fat, and lightly coating the pork with dry rub, smoke the Butt low and slow at 225f-275f for about 10-12 hours on your backyard Smoker.

When the internal temperature of the pork shoulder reaches around 180f-190f, remove from the fire and wrap it in plastic wrap or foil for about 45 minutes to an hour, so that it can rest. This allows the delicate flavor and juices to permeate the meat.

Shred as shown, and enjoy!
