Since the first cook on my newly completed UDS went extremely well, i'm going to try my hand at some pulled pork this weekend. I bought two pork shoulders from Sam's Club, about 5lbs each, and am wondering what rub everyone rates the highest. I've only got experience with the small jars of McCormicks Grill Mates rib rub from wally world that I used to put on chops I would grill. Wondering if that would be fine for pulled pork, or if there is something better. Also, as i'm still too new on this site, i've got no access to the recipe section, so i'm not too sure on how to prepare the meat prior to cook time. What works best for everyone here?
I'm hoping to come close to the taste of the pulled pork sandwiches I used to get from a place called Hog Wild on the south side of Chicago. Man, were those good! Can't remember the name of the town the place was in, but nonetheless, they were good.
Now that I got off track, I'll try to re-focus. I just went out and bought a digital thermometer at the suggestion of just about everyone who replied to my previous post a few days ago, so i'll be able to moniter the temp of the meat. Any suggestions on how to prepare the meat, do I wrap the meat in foil after a time and continue to cook in the foil or do the whole cook without, when I wrap in foil after the cook how long do I wait to pull it apart, then after that, how long do I wait to serve it?
As you can see, i'm a total novice at this, so please be patient with me. I tried searching back a ways through the forum, but it seems that i'm just not finding any straight forward how-to's on this. Thanks in advance for the help!!
