Product Information

When it comes to grilling steak, the use of barbecue sauce can be a matter of personal preference. Here are some expert tips to consider: To Sauce or Not to Sauce: Add garlic. I don’t like big clumps of garlic in my sauce, so I like to mash the cloves in a bowl first. When it comes to pairing this dish, bold flavors are key. Its smoky taste pairs perfectly with beer, such as an IPA or stout, which can help cut through the richness of the meat. A glass of red wine or bourbon also goes well with this recipe.

Preparing the pork for cooking correctly is vital for achieving that well-rounded quality taste experience. First off, remove any excess fat from the pork shoulder roast before slow-cooking it since we want more lean meat than fat in our pulled pork sandwiches. Also, brown sugar and paprika make up one of the main rub ingredients; massage it generously into your shoulder roast to allow the flavors of the spices to penetrate deeply into the meat. As with most sauce or glaze recipes, you can absolutely make this recipe ahead of time. It will keep for up to a week in the refrigerator (in an airtight container of course).

For a flavor twist: If you’re looking to add a unique twist to your steak, consider brushing on a thin layer of barbecue sauce during the last few minutes of grilling. This can add a hint of tanginess and caramelization to your steak. If you’re looking for side dishes to serve alongside your pulled pork sandwich, consider classic Southern sides such as baked beans and potato salad. Grilled vegetables such as zucchini or corn on the cob are great options too. Alternatively, opt for something that adds freshness such as a kale salad dressed in lemon juice and olive oil. You can also prep it ahead by roasting the garlic, chopping the onion, measuring out the brown sugar, etc.

Light brown sugar– if you don’t have dark brown sugar, light brown sugar will work just fine. The sauce may be a little bit lighter in color, but should still taste great. You could also add a drizzle of molasses to the sauce, which would mimic the molasses-y flavor of the dark brown sugar. Applying barbecue sauce before grilling: This method allows the sauce to caramelize on the meat, creating a delicious glaze and enhancing the flavor. However, it’s important to monitor the heat to prevent burning. After Grilling: Pulled pork is meant to be cooked slowly, which means having patience is key when it comes to making this recipe.

Variations of this recipe Use the pulled pork in tacos topped with your favorite toppings (sour cream, guacamole, jalapenos…the possibilities are endless!).

For best results, I recommend reheating in the oven. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and place the pulled pork in an oven-safe dish. Cover with foil and bake for approximately 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Minced Garlic– I give instructions on how to roast a head of garlic below. If you want a short cut, you can buy the minced garlic in oil from the grocery store that I always keep on hand. Cover with a lid and cook on low heat for about 8 hours, or until the pork is tender enough to pull apart easily with two forks. Roast garlic. This step can be done ahead to save time, or skipped altogether, but I think the roasted garlic really makes the glaze taste amazing. The biggest time saver when prepping ahead, is roasting the garlic. This can be done several days in advance, and saves about 40 to 50 minutes of time. Storage
