I eat a lot of pulled pork, from Kalua pork to carnitas, but this time I was craving that classic, sweet, flavor packed American style pulled pork. The kind that is perfect for building stacked pulled pork sandwiches.

I started with a 9 pound bone in pork butt. I used a light coat of mustard as a binder, then seasoned it generously with a mix of SPG and BBQ rub.

I smoked the pork at 250 degrees until it reached an internal temperature of 175. At that point, I placed it in a pan with apple juice, butter, and brown sugar, then covered it and continued cooking until it reached 205. The entire process took about 10 hours.

My favorite part of this low and slow cook is when the bone slides out clean. That is when you know the pork is incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor.

Pile it onto a loaded nachos or bun with your favorite slaw, pickles, BBQ sauce, and it is everything you want in a pulled pork sandwich. 

No Limit Tip: After pulling/shredding pork, taste it and season with salt to taste!

Ingredients:
1 9-pound Pork Butt, bone-in
Heath Riles Competition BBQ Rub
Kinder’s The Blend SPG Seasoning
Yellow mustard
6 ounces apple juice
¼ cup butter
¼ cup brown sugar
