Time 10h15m

Yield 4 servings with leftover pork and sauce

Number Of Ingredients 35

One 8- to 10-pound pork butt
1/4 cup cayenne pepper
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Sweet and Smoky BBQ Sauce, recipe follows
Canola oil, for frying
1 pound Brussels sprouts, roots trimmed and halved lengthwise
1 cup Thai Chili Vinaigrette, recipe follows
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted, plus additional for garnish
4 lime wedges
8 ounces brown sugar
1 ounce Bourbon Barrel brand bourbon-smoked paprika
3 tablespoons cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
30 ounces tomato sauce
18 ounces ketchup
8 ounces tomato paste
6 ounces honey
6 ounces molasses
6 ounces Bourbon Barrel brand bourbon barrel-aged Worcestershire sauce
4 ounces cola, such as Coca-Cola
4 ounces apple cider vinegar
2 ounces browning and seasoning sauce, such as Kitchen Bouquet
3 tablespoons liquid smoke
1 1/4 cups fish sauce
1 cup white sugar
Zest of 3 limes plus 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
2 tablespoons peeled and chopped ginger
1 tablespoon chopped garlic
1 teaspoon minced kaffir lime leaf
3 Thai chiles, de-stemmed and chopped
1/2 cup sambal oelek (an Asian chile paste)

Steps:

  • For the smoked pork butt: Trim some of the fat off of the pork butt and expose about a quarter of the meat. Stir together the cayenne, 2 cups salt and 2 cups pepper and rub the pork butt all over with the spice mix. Let sit at room temperature, 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, prepare a smoker for cooking at 225 degrees F. Place the pork butt in the smoker and smoke, adding wood chunks as necessary and maintaining a temperature of 225 degrees F, until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the pork registers 165 degrees F, about 9 hours. Remove the pork and shred off the meat. (Yield: 10 to 12 servings)
  • For the Brussels sprouts: Fill a large pot with canola oil and bring to 350 degrees F over medium-high heat. Line a baking sheet with paper towels. Fry a quarter of the Brussels sprouts until caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes, then transfer to the lined baking sheet for 30 seconds. Transfer to a stainless steel bowl and toss with a quarter of the Thai vinaigrette, a quarter of the cilantro and a quarter of the sesame seeds. Bring the oil back to 350 degrees F and repeat with the remaining ingredients in the same manner.
  • Put the Brussels sprouts into a bowl and garnish with lime wedges and some toasted sesame seeds. Serve with some Smoked Pork Butt and Sweet and Smoky BBQ Sauce. Reserve the remaining
  • In a large bowl combine the brown sugar, bourbon smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, 12 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Whisk them together very well, making sure there are no lumps.
  • In a separate bowl, combine the tomato sauce, ketchup, tomato paste, honey, molasses, Worcestershire sauce, cola, vinegar, browning and seasoning sauce and liquid smoke. Whisk together until well combined.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry spices and whisk vigorously until combined. Pass through a strainer to get any lumps out.
  • Place the fish sauce, sugar, lime juice, vinegar, ginger, garlic, lime leaf and chiles in a blender and blend until smooth. Transfer to a stainless steel bowl and whisk in the lime zest and sambal oelek. Set aside.

PULLED PORK FINISHING SAUCE



Pulled Pork Finishing Sauce image

This thin, vinegar-based finishing sauce, which differs from a BBQ sauce, is the secret ingredient to kick up my smoked pulled pork. After you've pulled your pork butt, drizzle over the meat and combine. The vinegar adds contrast to the smoky flavor and cuts through the fat in the meat. It also helps mellow out the darker, gamier-tasting parts of the butt. This makes enough for a 8 pound pork butt/shoulder.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork butt is cooked thoroughly, use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature has reached 195°F (90°C) before removing it from the smoker.
  • Let the pork butt rest for at least 30 minutes before shredding it. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • The finishing sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. When ready to use, simply reheat it over low heat until warmed through.
  • For a thicker sauce, add a cornstarch slurry made of equal parts cornstarch and water. Bring the sauce to a simmer and then whisk in the cornstarch slurry until the desired consistency is reached.
  • Serve the pulled pork with your favorite sides, such as coleslaw, baked beans, or potato salad.
