Slow smoking a pork shoulder for pulled pork isn't always possible, but you can get great consistent results in your oven. The pulled pork recipe in the video is toned down a bit from what we will usually do around our house - we tried to make a good starting point for people who shy away from too much spice or heat.

ngredients:

4-5 lb pork shoulder roast
3 Tblsp Hot and Spicy BBQ rub mixture
1 Tblsp Brown sugar
2-5 (or more!) chipotle peppers in adobo (minced).
2 White onions sliced thinly
Liquid to make a paste (vinegar, jalapeno pickle liquid, or water)

Method:

Pre heat oven to 250ºf
Mix the Hot and Spicy BBQ rub mixture, brown sugar, and chipotle peppers in a small bowl.
Add just enough liquid to bring it together as a paste.
Rub mixture all over pork roast.
Place roast and sliced onion in an oven proof dish.
Cook covered for 5-6 hours or until meat is tender.
Remove pork from oven.
Reserve pork jus from roasting pan.
Shred pork into 2 inch pieces and remove any excess fat, and sinew.
Skim off excess fat from jus (reduce if needed) and add to shredded pork.
Thoroughly mix pork and check for seasoning.

For an added kick:
Add 1/4 cup of vinegar to pan jus before reducing.

To push this into the stratosphere pour some of this 'Eastern North Carolina BBQ sauce' over just before serving.

Ingredients:

1 cup white vinegar
1 cup cider vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon hot pepper sauce, or to taste
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper

Method:

Combine the white vinegar, cider vinegar, brown sugar, cayenne pepper, hot pepper sauce, salt and pepper in a jar or bottle with a tight-fitting lid.
Refrigerate for 1 to 2 days before using so that the flavours will blend.
Shake occasionally, and store for up to 2 months in the refrigerator.

  • Is his oven's brand HATER or am I seeing things?

  • @Sorgutentarer The wine fridge is a HAIER

  • I was thinking of trying this one out! But when you say, 250 degrees... do you mean Fahrenheit or Celcius?

    Since I don't live in the US, i've no idea... but i'm guessing you mean Fahrenheit?

  • @prowler900 ºF

  • looks good but shouldn't you let it sit for a good while after taking it out of the oven and before you pull it apart? Let those juices settle!

  • @joedefranceschi Steak, or any roast / meat that you are going to carve, I fully agree that a period of rest after cooking is necessary. For this type of dish - since you are pulling it apart with forks or fingers - it doesn't need to rest.

  • Looks delicious! I soak the pork shoulder in apple juice and onions for at least 24 hours before cooking to give it more flavor. Sprinkle on my own dry rub made from nearly every spice and herb I have. Then I use a Cookshack electric smoker oven for 17 hours with apple wood for the smoking. After pulling it apart I mix it with my BBQ Sauce for Amateurs and voila! -- the best pulled pork sandwich in Silicon Valley! Hope you'll take a look. Thanks for a great video!

  • Here's a tip don't watch cooking shows .when your hungry .. really bad idea.. or more like .. really sad now .. "me so hungry me hungry long time"

  • Love pulled pork! Haven't done oven before. Just did a pulled pork episode on my cooking show 'cook with adam"

  • Great video! I followed your instruction to a T, the results were awesome. Only thing I did different was brine my Boston Butt over night. Also before I served it up, I drizzled "Sweet Baby Rays" over it.... Thanks!!!

  • that pork looks more like a boston butt than a pork shoulder but i'll take your word for it. looks to die for.
