I was asked to make pulled pork for a friend of my wife for this Saturday so over the weekend I took out twenty pounds worth of pork butts to thaw for smoking either tomorrow or Friday. On Monday they asked to double the amount of pulled pork and needed it for tomorrow for a parade party in the evening. So I took out two more butts to thaw and even though they aren't thawed they'll be fine. But I had to move up smoking them to today.
so, this morning they got a rub down with agave and liberally seasoned with rub. I was going to use my Keg to do the original two butts but decided to go with the Traeger using apple pellets fro fuel.
Ready for the smoke!
In the Traeger
After I had them going a few minutes I decided to add a lil more smoke using my A-MAZE-N-PELLET-SMOKER using the same apple pellets in the Traeger.
I threw together a mix of agave, apple cider vinegar and 7 Up to spritz the butts later. The agave and 7 Up should help with the bark.
Oh and yeah, they're paying me to do this for them.
