Time 17h20m

Yield 4 to 6 pounds pulled pork

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 quarts water
12 ounces kosher salt
8 ounces molasses
8 to 10 pound boneless pork butt
Special equipment: Smoker and 4 ounces hickory or oak wood chunks

Steps:

  • Place the water, salt and molasses in a large 12-quart container and stir until the salt dissolves. Add the pork butt to the brine and weigh down with a zip top bag filled with 2 cups of the brine to make sure it is completely submerged in the brine.
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight. Remove the pork from the brine, and pat dry.
  • Heat the smoker to 225 degrees F. Add the wood chunks, and place the pork into the smoker. Cook until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, 4 to 5 hours.
  • Once the meat reaches 140 degrees F, heat the oven to 300 degrees F. Wrap the pork in aluminum foil and transfer to a half sheet pan. Place on the center rack and cook until the pork reaches an internal temperature of at least 200 degrees F and is tender and pulling apart easily, 3 to 5 hours. Remove from the oven and rest, covered for 30 minutes before serving.

THE RENOWNED MR. BROWN



The Renowned Mr. Brown image

In old Southern slang, "Mr. Brown" is the dark, smoky outside part of barbecued pork, usually the shoulder. This is the traditional cooking style, perfected by generations of pitmasters to give Mr. Brown his deserved renown. Adapted from 'Smoke & Spice'. Please note that every smoker is unique, so the cooking times are merely a guideline.

Time P1D

Yield 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 -8 lbs boston butt, trimmed of excess fat to 1/4 inch
1/4 cup fresh ground black pepper
1/4 cup paprika
1/4 cup turbinado sugar
2 tablespoons salt
2 teaspoons dry mustard
1 teaspoon cayenne
2 cups apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons fresh ground black pepper
2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon cayenne
your favourite southern barbecue sauce (I use Pigman's)

Steps:

  • The night before you plan to barecue, combine the rub ingredients in a small bowl.
  • Massage the pork well with about half of the rub.
  • Transfer to plastic bag and refrigerate over night.
  • Before you begin to barbecue, remove pork from refrigerator, and let sit at room temp for 30-45 minutes.
  • Prepare the smoker for barbecuing, bringing the temp to 200-225 degrees.
  • Stir remaining rub together with the sop ingredients, and 1 cup of water in a saucepan, and warm the mixture over low heat (you are keeping the liquid warm during the cooking process to kill any bacteria the tool might pick up from the surface of the food, and to avoid lowering the temperature of the food).
  • Transfer the pork to the smoker and cook it for about 1 and 1/2 hours per pound, or until it's falling-apart tender.
  • Mop the pork every 1 and 1/2- two hours, or as appropriate for your smoking method.
  • [Ihad a six pound butt which took about 12 hours to cook- when ready, it was black and burnt looking on the outside, and the internal temp was almost 180-degrees.
  • ]Remove the pork from the smoker, wrap tightly in tinfoil, and let sit for at least 30 minutes.
  • Remove from foil, and roughly chop or'pull' the pork, mixing well the black, crispy extrior, with the butter-soft interior meat.
  • Add a small portion of your favourite BBQ sauce and mix well- you generally will need much less than you would think.
  • Place into holding container, cover with foil, and place back into smoker for 20 or so minutes (this is optional- you can eat right away, if you like).
  • This is so good, a CWB (cheap white bun) would take away from the pure pork pleasure.
  • Serve with your favourite cole slaw and icy cold beer.
