The Pulled Pork Thread

First butt on the traeger, about 10 hours in.

FM will not appreciate this question but how far off is the pulled pork we are doing with the pork Cafe Rio puts on their burritos? Is it just a matter of the sauce or is the cooking method entirely different/

[FMCoug]

If the multitude of crockpot cafe rio pork recipes around are an indication, it's both. But mainly the sauce. Didn't someone post one here that was like a couple of cups of brown sugar and a teaspoon of pepper or something like that?

I think you also pour soda over it.

Don't let him fool you, Shaka. The Cafe Rio Pork recipe is a way to take boring ol' pulled pork and turn it into something fantastic.

While Cafe Rio's pork is braised to perfection, it is pretty easy to take leftover smoked pulled pork (yawn!) and turn it into pork barbacoa by creating the sauce, and then simmering the pork in the sauce for a couple minutes:

12 oz. Dr. Pepper or Coke (NOT diet)
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup white sugar
1 clove garlic, minced
7 oz. can chipotle chilies in adobo sauce
3 tbsp of your preferred hot sauce
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp cumin
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper

Combine in saucepan and simmer until reduced by half

I'm just glad we're finally getting this pork thread on track. It took three pages, but better late than never.

For the love of God, get this crap out of our BBQ thread. This thread is for the true order of pork.

Had some great Lowcountry pulled pork tonight at Melvin's in Charleston, SC. My first time having a mustard-based BBQ sauce -- it was delicious!

WHAT? :yikes: REALLY? WTF?

There's no good BBQ west of the Mississippi. This proves it if you've never tried mustard-based until today. And you call yourself gordo!
