how to hold together pulled pork?
Posted: 28 May 2011, 15:17
So the other day i saw in the supermarket some pork shoulder v cheap on offer (1.8Kilo £1.89) and thought perfect for some pulled pork for me and the mrs at the weekend. however i didnt realise that the hunk i got was rolled. so when taken out the packaging it fell to bits (well lots of bits joined together would be the best way to describe it. Now i usally get my meat from the local butcher and he gets it right all the time so i am kicking myself for not going there this time.
Anyway getting to my point, I am determined to fix this some how and was wondering if it would work if i tightly wrapped it in foil and smoked the normal way perhaps piercing the foil all over to get the smoke penetration/ tie it up with string to hold it together/ skewer it with a few kebab skewers lol ... or just leave it as it is is and seeing how it turns out.
What do the wise people of the BBBQS think ? It is getting cooked tomorrow, i have just made some No 5 sauce that tastes superb so i need this to work !
All the best
