Smoked Pulled Pork

Ingredients:

3.50 lbs pork shoulder- this was half of a Costco pack of 2- froze the other half

Dry Rub:

0.25 cup ancho chili powder

2 tbsp chipotle powder

2 tbsp ground mustard

2 tbsp smoked paprika

0.25 cup garlic powder

Liquid Spritz:

2 cups apple cider vinegar

1 cup beef broth

0.50 cup worcestershire

0.50 cup apple juice

Pre-heat smoker to 225 degrees. We have a Green Mountain smoker and use applewood chips.

Pull pork out of the fridge, mix rub mixture and place generously over the pork shoulder.

Place directly on a preheated smoker.

Mix the spritz mixture and using a meat injector, inject small amounts of the liquid into the pork shoulder, about once an hour.

After 3-5hrs, once the pork reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees, wrap tightly with foil.

Place the pork shoulder back on the smoker for an additional 4hrs until the internal temperature reaches 195-205 degrees. The pork should be very tender and falling apart.

Let rest for 20 minutes and then pull apart and enjoy!
