Bbq Pork Recipe By : Serving Size : 20 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Meats Pork Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- 2 4-5 lb boneless pork butts Recipe BBQ rub: 2 tablespoons Salt 2 tablespoons Sugar 2 tablespoons Brown sugar 2 tablespoons Ground cumin 2 tablespoons Chili powder 2 tablespoons Black pepper 1 tablespoon Cayenne pepper 1/4 cup Paprika N.C.style BBQ sauce* This is the traditional rub but feel free to mix and match to meet your own taste . A rub helps develop the crispy crust that is essential to true barbeque. Mix all ingredients together and store in an air-tight jar. Yield: 1 cup. Rub the butts with 1 cup of barbecue rub and let come to room temperature, about 2 hours; using hardwood charcoal, build a small fire on one side of a covered kettle-style grill; allow about 30 minutes for the charcoal to catch completely; place the butts on the grill rack making sure they are not above any part of the fire; cover the gril l and vent lightly; pull a comfortable chair and a cooler of beer out of the house and sit next to the grill, adding small amounts of charcoal to keep the fire just smoldering (about every 30 to 40 minutes, or after each beer, whichever comes first). Cook 5 to 7 hours or until internal temperature is 170F and the meat is super tender; remove from the grill and shred; mix with the sauce* and pile onto cheap, white, fluffy rolls; top with coleslaw and serve with a side order of beans. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
