directions

Step 1

Combine rub ingredients in a small bowl, mix until all ingredients are evenly combined. Place pork on a tray and rub the mixture into the flesh using slight pressure to tear little pockets of flavour in the meat. Place rubbed pork in a large sealable bag. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

Step 2

Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until evenly combined. Reserve ¾ cup (187ml) of the mop to pour over the pulled pork when finished cooking.

Step 3

During the cooking mop the pork every ½ hour using a mop brush.

Step 4

Place all sauce ingredients into a medium saucepan and place over medium high heat. Bring sauce to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 5

Using your hands (rubber gloves recommended) or a fork pull at the pork meat. It will come off in threads.

Step 7

Preheat barbeque to medium heat 350F (176C).

Step 8

The following day, let 8 cups of wood chips soak for 1 hour in cool water. Drain wood chips. To make the smoke pouches, place 2 cups (500ml) of the drained wet chips with 1 cup (250ml) of the dry. Mix until evenly distributed. Wrap chips in foil to fit the size of your barbeque burner. Using a fork, pierce the package several times all over to allow the smoke to escape. Repeat with remaining chips to create 2 pouches in total.

Step 9

Prepare barbeque for indirect cooking. Leave 2 burners off and one burner on. Place a drip pan on the side of the barbeque that is off. Place a smoking pouch on the side that is turned on, directly over the burner. Place the pork on the grill over the drip pan. Cook for 5-6 hours (about an hour a pound) changing the smoke pouch when smoke dissipates.
