I have followed almost every thread about PP or BBQ(Pulled) Beef with interest. When I first started smoking larger pieces of meat I used a rub and slather of mustard, then moved to EVOO and rub. Now, I don't use any rub at all on these cuts. I will rub a brisket so I get a healthy bark.
Here is my thinking; (trouble, I know), For a more uniform dispersment of flavor I add rub after I have pulled the meat. It's only my opinion, and I have no scientific data to back it up, but it seems to me that I would get bursts of flavor from the "barked" & rubbed pieces in the sammy, and that is NOT what I am looking for. I want a more uniform flavor, so mixing the rub into the cooked and pulled product seems a better way to go.
What do the rest of you do? What is the basis for your decision?
