Yum!  Did you use a Carolina vinegar based sauce I presume?

It was a thin vinegar tomato sauce made with apple-juice and some drippings. Barely can tell it's there so it might need some notch-kicking. ;) Otherwise it's unctuous, smoky and porky.

Robert I pulled it with forks as much as I could until my hands got tired. Then chopped, which I think is traditional. Ended up with alot- maybe the folks at work will eat well. They'll want brisket too.

I've started using those yellow dishwashing gloves to pull mine (the pork shoulder  ;) ). Works like a charm. The fork thing never worked for me. I'm still eating on mine from Labor Day. I froze most of it. I did make some stuffed Hatch Chiles with pulled pork and cream cheese a couple of nights after making it. Those were out-freakin-standing.

That's a good idea! And the rellenos sound delicioso. That's definitely within my capabilities. Have four pounds meat vac-packed, which is probably 16 or so sandwiches worth. Not wanting to reinvent the wheel, but I think some thin sliced onion would go well either with the slaw or as a sub, but then it'd need pickles. Oh jeez now I'm talking chopped beef... :-\

I thought they looked marinated. Shrimp really benefit from a quickie marinade. A quick brine will do wonders as well.

Did 2 racks of babybacks last night along with some stuffed pork-loin (yup you guessed it: with bratwurst), potatoes and corn on the cob.

The loin was/is excellent! I got a good deal on a whole loin at 1.67/# and it was fresh- never frozen. So I cut and stuffed five roasts, vac-packed and froze 4- the other went in the smoker at 275 until 155F in the center.

The ribs are another story. For some reason I had a brain fart and modified Harry Soo's 6 hour 275F method (no spritzing) for my babybacks. Came out waaay overcooked. The bark was excellent, next time only 4 hours. I think either the spritzing or the size of the ribs makes a difference here. I'm just not prepared to "spritz" every 15 minutes for two hours.

Solution? Chopped pork with a sweet vinegar sauce on rolls...

Actually, the crunchy bits are great in the pork. Additional dimensions of texture and flavor. Expensive way to make pulled pork but goood... :D
