Time 18h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (7 to 8 pound) Boston pork butt
2 tablespoons yellow mustard
4 ounces spice rub (recommended: Out of this World BBQ Rub)
1 cup apple juice or apple cider

Steps:

  • Coat the pork butt with the mustard. Apply the spice rub all over the pork butt, creating a paste with the mustard. Place the pork, fat side up, in a preheated 225 to 250 degree F smoker for 10 1/2 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 190 to 200 degrees F. During the smoking process, leave the smoker closed for the first 2 hours and then spray the pork with a small amount of apple juice or cider every 2 hours thereafter.
  • Remove pork butt from the smoker and let rest for at least 15 minutes before pulling apart.

This recipe was easy to follow and the pork butt turned out great! I used hickory wood chips and it gave the meat a nice smoky flavor. I served it with baked beans and coleslaw and it was a delicious meal. I will definitely be making this again.
