Chef John's Pulled Pork Bbq
This recipe takes a good deal of time, but it yields a lot of sandwiches, more than enough for a sloppy, spicy dinner party feast.
Recipe Summary Chef John's Pulled Pork Bbq
Use your favorite dry rub and barbeque sauce to make this succulent pork. A little trick I like is to put 2 ramekins with liquid smoke flavoring in with the meat and roast it slowly. Do your patriotic American duty and serve this on the cheapest, lightest white hamburger buns you can find.Ingredients | Pulled Pork Sandwich Recipes
3 tablespoons dry barbeque rub, or more as needed
1 (3 1/2) pound bone-in pork shoulder blade roast
Ā½ teaspoon liquid smoke flavoring, divided
1 cup water, divided
Ā¾ cup barbeque sauce, or as needed
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
12 soft white hamburger buns
Ā¾ cup barbeque sauce, divided
Directions
Preheat oven to 210 degrees F (100 degrees C).
Sprinkle dry rub generously on all sides of pork roast and place meat into a heavy pan or Dutch oven.
Pour 1/4 teaspoon of liquid smoke flavoring into each of two 6-ounce ramekins; fill ramekins with 1/2 cup water each. Place ramekins into the Dutch oven on either side of the roast. Place lid onto Dutch oven.
Roast pork in the preheated oven until very tender, 12 hours. Remove roast from Dutch oven, place onto a work surface (such as a cutting board), and separate the meat from the bone using your fingers. Discard any large pieces of fat.
Roughly chop pork with a large knife or cleaver; drizzle with 3/4 cup barbeque sauce. Season with salt and black pepper.
Spread about 1 tablespoon barbeque sauce onto each bun and pile pork on buns to serve.
