Oven 300°
INGREDIENTS:
1 Pork Bone in Butt/Shoulder about 8 lbs
1-2 Tbsp Dry Rub.
For the Liquid:
1/2 c Apple Juice.
1 tsp apple cider.
1/2 tsp Liquid Smoke.
DIRECTIONS:
8 lbs for the Roast is normal, but if Boneless is what you have then use that. I use Bone in.. for more flavor and the meat next to the bone is nice and tender and often gets cut out when butchers cut the Bone out.
See below for My Dry Rub Recipe if you don’t have one.
Pat Roast Dry.
Sprinkle with the Rub. Coat well. Use your discretion. Rub it in a little.
Cover and store in the Refrigerator overnight.
Remove Roast from the Refrigerator and allow it to come to room temp. Place in Dutch Oven or roasting Pan.
ADD FROM ABOVE:
1/2 c Apple Juice.
1 tsp apple cider.
1/2 tsp Liquid Smoke.
Preheat the Oven to 300°
Place the Roast on a Rack, Fat side up into a Roasting Pan. Cover it tightly with Foil and then with a lid.
Set Oven to Bake or Roast @ 300° for 4 hrs, then uncover and return to the Oven for About 2 more hours to create the Bark. Make sure that there is about 1/2 liquid when you look in the Pot, if there is more, no worries, it will reduce more as the Roast Creates its Bark.
*Another way to do this is to Preheat Oven to 400° Put the Roast in for 15 min and then turn it down To 300°, for 4 hrs, uncover and cook for 2 more to Create that Bark. Check the Bone, it should be easy to remove.
When the Roast is done, take it out and remove it from the Pan. Drain the juice into a Bowl, and return it to the Pan. Shred with two Forks.
Add some of the Juice back into the Roast. Or make the dipping sauce, and pour about 1/2 to 1 cup of that back in to the Pulled Pork.
DIPPING SAUCE:
2 Tbsp Tobasco.
2-4 Tbsp Brown Sugar.
1/2 c apple cider vinegar.
2-3 cloves garlic
2 cups pork Juice
Taste the Juice and see if you want to adjust more tobasco or anything.
We serve this on Hoagie Rolls with some Cole Slaw on it, and put some of the Dipping Sauce into a small bowl to Dip it in. .
