Pulled pork finishing sauce

Post by Iluv2hunt » Sat Feb 16, 2013 11:47 am

Don't know if I ever posted this before. I just made a batch for tonight's pork so I figured I would post the recipe

1 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon fresh black pepper
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon of a Cajun seasoning like Tony Cacherie's or any butt rub
(If you want a bbq flavor to it, you can add about 1/2 bottle bbq sauce at this point)

Heat over medium until everything is dissolved. Put it in an old ketchup bottle to dispense it. You can mix some into the batch of meat after you pull it, or put it on the table for everyone to put a squirt on their pork as it's served.

I can tell you I have cooked pork for a long time. A finishing sauce absolutely sets it above anyone elses

Sure looks good! Recipe sounds good too, but I believe I could chow down on that good lookin' pork with a piece of light bread and be "as happy as a dead pig in the sunshine" without the sauce! Treefarmer

I got a quick story for you. I never met my grandfather on dads side. He passed 2 years before I was hatched. My family has always said that he was a fanatic about lite bread. No matter what was served for a meal, he demanded lite bread on the table. Even if there was 4 different kinds of bread already served, he still had to have it

I see you are using that old vertical smoker again, did you figure how to keep the temps stable in that beast.

Yep. I put a turkey fryer burner in it and ran the hose out the bottom door. Then I used a pie tin full of lit charcoal and some apple wood chips for smoke. Worked perfectly

Light bread is what the old timers in the south called loaf bread, white or wheat. As you know corn bread is rather "heavy" in its' make up as compared to what we all call sliced bread from a loaf. My father-in-law who will be 90 this August, used to called store bought sliced loaf bread "wasp nest", because it was so light compared to the common corn bread or biscuits of the day.

I use something very similar to that but I inject my butts with it. Nothing like pulled pork sandwiches I make homemade coleslaw and put that on the sandwiches also.
