“How-To” – Smoke a Pork Butt- Pulled Pork

awsome video, im taking a crack at making my first pulled pork ever tomorrow

bricki are you familiar with the “minion method”? If not, fill the charcoal ring with completely with charcoal. Light your charcoal chimney and dump the hot coals on top, and that should give you around 13-14 hrs of burn, with one water refill needed. This is for the 18″ model. I think the 22″ will go even longer. I am pretty sure that is the method he uses as well. A lot of people will say that cooking over unlight charcoal is a big no-no. I haven’t tasted anything from doing it.

I have been using my WSM for at least 15 years . In your video you said you filled it and burned all night. The average burn for me without refilling is 3 to 4 hours. Can you explain your loading technique so I don’t have to wake up every 3 hours to check the coals.

Delicious! Any Carolina BBQ sauce for that matter.
Very Basic Carolina BBQ Sauce:
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
salt & pepper to your taste
simmer real low for an hourlet cool…enjoy

it’s called a Weber Smokey Mountain. one of the best smokers you can buy….imo

charcoal

dude great video thanks

So what internal temp should it go too??
around 190?/ fantastic video

It’s a matter of choice with the fat. Most (at least from the south) will smoke the butt with the fat side up to allow the juices and the moister to add to the rub and act like a tenderizer. When your cooking it lo and slo, the fat will render from the muscle and as Bubba says the bone will slide out at the right time. I myself have never taken the fat off or cooked it fat side down. Just experiment and see what is best for you. You cant go wrong.

Loved your video We have the same cooker, but we’re struggling to keep temp stable… what do you use? Charcoal? Briquettes? Thanks ;D

Fantastic video, you speak well on camera! I am throwing my picnic in, in a few minutes just wanted to refresh myself with a video. Thanks!

Good Luck! Let us know how you make out with your new cooker.

Use a full basket with 15 – 20 lit pieces of coal. I only use sand in my wsm.

Yup, do as JMocella says and bank your coals to one side while cooking the butt on the opposite side. Good Luck!

Thanks for the comments! How did yours turn out?

This guy is a great teacher !!! I am making it right this moment on the smoker. I’m at 4 hrs so I guess I have a long wait to go. It will be worth it though !!!
