- Combine molasses, pickling salt, and water in 6-quart Lexan. Add Boston butt making sure it is completely submerged in brine, cover, and let sit in refrigerator for a minimum of 8 hours. 12 hours is ideal.
- Place cumin seed, fennel seed, and coriander in food grinder and grind fine. Transfer to a small mixing bowl and stir in chili powder, onion powder, and paprika.
- Remove Boston butt from brine and pat dry. Sift the rub evenly over the shoulder and then pat onto the meat making sure as much of the rub as possible adheres. More rub will adhere to the meat if you are wearing latex gloves during the application.
- Preheat smoker to 210 degrees F. Place butt in smoker and cook for 10 to12 hours, maintaining a temperature of 210 degrees F. Begin checking meat for doneness after 10 hours of cooking time. Use fork to check for doneness. Meat is done when it falls apart easily when pulling with a fork. Once done, remove from pot and set aside to rest for at least 1 hour. Pull meat apart with 2 forks and serve as sandwich with coleslaw and dressing as desired.

Steps:
- Combine 4 cups water, sugar, and salt in a 7- to 9-quart Dutch oven. Add pork shoulder, skin-side up. The meat should be just about covered by water but if not, add a little more. Cover and put in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Remove the Dutch oven from the refrigerator and drain and discard brine.
- Cover and cook in the preheated oven, drizzling juices from the bottom of the pot over the roast with a baster to keep it moist every 45 minutes, 5 to 7 hours. Coat top of roast with brown sugar, use juices to wet brown sugar, and continue to cook until meat is tender and soft, about 1 hour longer.
- Transfer roast to a cutting board, remove shoulder bone, and shred meat. Return shredded meat to the Dutch oven and mix with juices. Serve.

EATON'S EASY PULLED PORK
This is one of the easiest pulled pork recipes I've made. Since my husband was from 'south of the Mason-Dixon line' and raved about pulled pork in Virginia/South Carolina, I had a tough job ahead of me, but he loved it (!) so I guess I passed the test.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: Pork shoulder (also known as pork butt) is the best cut for pulled pork because it is a tough, flavorful cut that becomes tender when cooked slowly.
- Use a dry rub: A dry rub helps to flavor the pork and create a crispy crust. Be sure to rub the pork all over, including the underside.
- Cook the pork low and slow: Pulled pork is best cooked at a low temperature (around 225 degrees Fahrenheit) for a long period of time (at least 8 hours). This allows the pork to become tender and fall apart easily.
- Add liquid to the pot: Adding liquid to the pot helps to keep the pork moist and flavorful. You can use water, broth, or even beer.
- Use a meat thermometer: The best way to ensure that the pork is cooked through is to use a meat thermometer. The internal temperature of the pork should reach 200 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork rest: Once the pork is cooked, let it rest for at least 30 minutes before shredding it. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the pulled pork with your favorite sides: Pulled pork is a versatile dish that can be served with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or baked beans.
Conclusion:
Pulled pork is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following these tips, you can make sure that your pulled pork turns out perfect every time.
