Adam Perry Lang BBQ pulled pork ....nom nom nom

[poo at Paul's]

I had pulled pork sandwiches at a BBQ place in Kansas City couple of years ago and got addicted to them! Nver cooked it before, but tracked down this guy, dont knwo if anyone has heard much about him, but he's a bit of a legend in US BBQ circles it appears, and his recipes are online. SoI tried his pulled pork recipe this weekend. For those who have never pulled pork (fnar fnarrr!) its basically a shoulder of pork, (I used a "hand")marinaded, and slow cooked on a BBQ, (although I used our inside oven and a smoker pot). Cooked it at 110 degrees C for about 12 hours, basting and marinading it with a "cider mop spray" and homemade BBQ sauce throughout, then the meat is "pulled" in strings off the bone, and simmmered for 3 hours in the rest of the BBQ sauce.

Served on rolls with fresh homemade coleslaw, and onion mash with potatoes dug up that morning!

All I can say is, a lot of work, but it came out brilliantly and I will definately be cooking it again, it's pretty special!
Check out this guy, remember, to convert his "degrees" from F to C though!

I should get prize for the inuendo factor in that post!! pulling pork, using a hand. After 12 hours, I was a master baster I can tell you! !

The ginger beer sounds good idea, sweet enought to burn up and add a bit of colour. May try it in the cider mop next time.

From now on though I will be making my own BBQ sauce, its simple enough and keeps if you dont use it all.
Onions, green peppers, chilli powder, brown sugar, mollasses or honey, ketchup, mustard, rum, garlic, apple juice, cumin, salt and pepper. Simmer it up, liquidise it and its done!
