Title: fried unpulled pork
Post by: Troy on October 07, 2014, 08:10:23 AM
one of my absolute faves! Full write up here - Unpulled Pork Steaks - Pulled Pork Leftover Recipe  (http://weberkettleclub.com/blog/2014/10/07/unpulled-pork-steaks/)

Cut an un-pulled smoked butt into chops or steaks. Season.

Troy - great write up on the main page - very well done.  I am definitely going to have to try this one out.  One more excuse to throw another pork butt on the smoker....

Troy looks awesome! Did you have the bandit section powder coated? Your middle section seems to hold up better than high heat paint.

its not powder coated. it's a red high heat paint.

it's held up really well, and i've had some crazy grease fires in that thing too!!

You've discovered pork steaks - they are great! They are a midwest (or possibly just a St Louis?) staple. All of the butcher shops and grocery stores sell butts pre-sliced into steaks. They are typically grilled low and slow or braised. Mom also used to sear them in her CI frying pan and then throw them in the oven to finish up on low heat.

I will say that i havent heard of anyone pre-smoking a butt and then slicing it into steaks... will definitely have to give this new innovation a try!

Looks great @Troy

I did some fried pork chops last week and they were amazing. I need to try your method soon!

pork steaks are a staple in my house, have been for a decade.
They usually get broiled with salt'n'pepa and then finished with oyster sauce.
Not low or slow, but delicious nonetheless

I purposely leave some unpulled because I like to fry it up ....sometimes I dice it up or leave in steaks.....  I usually do it for breakfast .
