Pulled Pork for Memorial Day Afternoon

[Roaniecowpony]

Pork shoulder on at 4 pm for tomorrow afternoon party. I'm running at 225F. I think it should finish up around 6-8 am. No wrap. I'll wire up the EKG so I don't have to get out of bed to check up on it in the wee hours of the morning.

I'll let it cool an hour or two, then pull it, then tray it, pour some seasoned broth over it and smoke/char the pulled pork to get smoke and rub flavor into the interior of the meat.

We're going to my brother in law's. His wife is...well, anal about "the menu". "Control freak" is the kind term. She bought a tritip that she'll do in the oven. It'll be overcooked and dry. I told my wife I wanted to whip up some mustard sauce and get some apple butter and rolls for sliders. She actually vetoed me! She said something about her sis-in -law being anal about the menu. Guess I'm gonna drink and eat straight pulled pork. I''m bringing some wines I really like. Sometimes I hate going to the family parties where I don't get to control the menu.

Gotta love family, especially the tri tip destroying kind. If you need substitute family for the next load of sliders, I can send you the address. No way my wife would turn that down coming in the door.

6:00 am, all quiet on the western front.

I was surprised it was so dark. I had run a smoke tube for the first 4 hours. That was new for me.

my inlaws cook steaks in the oven well done! i feel your pain. once you get used to goo

I shouldn't have talked trash. The husband grilled a pre-seasoned tritip on his gas grill very nicely. It was toward the medium side but still juicy. I brought some slider rolls and sauces. It was nice.
