Hello Brethren,

I'm making Pulled Pork Nachos today.

It starts with smoking a pork butt. I bought a nice 6.3 lb butt from Publix last night, injected it with a homemade injection, and rubbed it with commercial Butt Rub. Then put it back in the refrigerator overnight (12 hours).

The injection recipe (makes one cup):

3/8 cup brown sugar
3/8 cup apple juice
3/8 cup water
1 TBS Worcestershire Sauce
1 TBS table salt
2 TBS cup real maple syrup

I'll be smoking the butt on my Pit Barrel Cooker at 300 degrees with pecan wood chunks.

After 3.5 hours at 300 degrees, the internal temperature was 165. I double-wrapped in aluminum foil and added 1/3 cup of apple juice, and returned to the smoker.

Dang that’s a quick cook! My record is 6 hours on a pork butt. Let us know if you can taste the maple syrup in The injection after the smoke.
