Smoked Pulled Pork Carnitas

Postby jwh » Sat Oct 07, 2017 11:13 am

Well, I'm gonna smoke a pork butt today, but it ain't properly barbecue in the East Coast sense. I marinaded the 7lber in a Chiles, Lime, & Ginger marinade overnight. Just rubbed it with Salt, Pepper, Cumin, Chili Powder, Paprika, and Garlic Powder and am about to put it in some smoke on Weber Smokey Mountain. I may braise it in some onions, serranos, tomato sauce, and apple cider vinegar after 4-5 hours, or I may just let it cook all the way through. I've not yet decided.

More than one way to skin a cat, so IMHO your aren't doing anything wrong.
I've never marinated a pork but like this, but I'm ALL IN on trying new or not so common ideas.
Can't wait to see the grub when done.

Out for a foil-wrap and a spritz, then back to the smoker.

Yeah I know but that's 4 steps as opposed to a thanks emoticon at the bottom where it's just 1 touch. Like on the hotrodders site.
Just a thought, no biggy, makes me sound lazy now,lol
