When you take your time with this low and slow pulled pork recipe, you’ll be rewarded with a sweet, smoky and deliciously tender pork butt that falls apart in your hands. An overnight marinade in Dr Pepper adds a surprisingly complex hit of sweetness, while a long smoke with post oak charcoal and sweet apple wood infuses deep, rich flavor through the bark and deep into the meat. About the cut: Pork butt is a sturdy piece of meat full of connective tissue and marbled fat that comes from the upper part of a pig’s shoulder. It’s hearty enough to hold up to a long, slow cook in the smoker, making it ideal for any recipe where you want rich flavor and fall-apart-tender meat. This recipe was created by our partner Brigette Duran who made the dish on our Oklahoma Joe's® Highland Reverse Flow Offset Smoker, but you can make it on your grill or smoker.
