Pork Butt on my kettle
« on: September 28, 2020, 05:56:25 AM »
On my 22 kettle with SnS. 8lb pork butt with Killer Hogs BBQ rub and glazed with Killer Hogs BBQ and Vinegar sauces. Pecan wood smoke. Oh, and I crosshatched the fat cap and cooked it fat cap up which produced little pieces of glazed deliciousness to pop off and eat after the cook.

Pulled pork looks tasty!
Did you smoke pork with fat cap up?

Thanks for sharing your cook.

Cheers

Yes, fat cap up. The cross hatching I did on the fat cap produced little pieces of deliciousness coated in BBQ sauce.

I've been smoking BB for over 30 years and never tried it with crosshatched fat cap up.
Thanks for the reply, I'll give it a try on my next BB cook.

Cheers

Very Nice. How do you like the killer hogs stuff? I was thinking of trying it.

I like the Killer Hogs rubs and sauces a lot - especially like the regular BBQ sauce.

I usually cross cut my fat caps and cook fat up too :)
I'll coat in mustard prior to rubbing - helps hold the spice/rub to the meat and doesn't affect taste - I have a couple family members that despises mustard LOL and cant tell  ;) ... and they know its there  ;D
I'll do that typically with butts and pork loins; ribs or pork bells not so much..

I haven't tried the killer hogs, but use "Cluck N Squeal" for a my base rub along with the classics (Salt/Pepper/Garlic P./etc)...
Ribs and butts will get a vinegar based baste/mop that I'll add some apple juice/cider and either an apple or cherry smoke.. (Not to mention a soak/brine several hours to a day prior)...
I won't sauce the butts; its AWESOME without but will have various sauces/mustards of choice for the final top off...
Ribs I'll do a 50/50 with a sauce and without, the meat, spice, smoke flavor carries thru and stands well on it own - but those that do its that last 15/20 minutes...

The shoulders/butts running indirect, and a sliced pork loin (done in the oil-less fryer) both w/ mustard ;) ... Cant wait to fire up the kettle :)
