The Little Pork Butt That Could...

Recommended Posts

... take 15 hours to cook. I put it on at 8:30 AM and took it off at 11:30 PM.

Pulled. Very tasty but a tad on the dry side. I can fix that.;)

Another taste this morning and the pulled pork is not dry and it is even tastier than last night.:) Those potatoes are the little ends from my cut fries of yesterday. ;)

Nice looking roast, Mac. Did you cook that fat side down? There's plenty of smart folks out there that like it that way, but I prefer the fat on top when I do a butt roast. Some people will argue this, but I think the fat does, to some extent anyway, melt down through the pork helping the moistness factor as it cooks. Kind of like the debate on which way to cook brisket. (I cook that fat side up also) What was your final temp?  Is that some kind of jam or jelly you added? Looks very interesting!

Bruce, I think that when I pulled it a some of the  moisture evapourated. I didn't do anything to moisten and it is fine this morning.

amusedtodeath, this little butt was in a box of pork I bought and it had the bone removed and the most of the fat was on the top side, you can see it in the pix under the string. I didn't put a thing on the meat.

That is sour cherry jam on the toast.:)
