Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: For pulled pork, use a pork shoulder (also known as pork butt or Boston butt). This cut is well-marbled with fat, which will keep the pork moist and flavorful as it cooks.
- Cook the pork low and slow: The key to tender, juicy pulled pork is to cook it low and slow. This allows the connective tissue in the pork to break down, resulting in meat that is fall-apart tender.
- Use a flavorful rub: A good rub will add flavor and depth to the pork. Be sure to use a rub that is specifically designed for pork, as some rubs can be too spicy or salty.
- Smoke the pork over indirect heat: Smoking the pork over indirect heat will help to keep it moist and prevent it from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork: The pork is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 205 degrees Fahrenheit.
