Cook before pork

Post by nickdel »

Hi All

Has anyone cooked a pork butt the day before they needed it and then warmed it up the following day?
The thing is I've got a BBQ tomorrow and was going to get up at silly O'clock to fire the ProQ up for the pork to be cooked at about 2pm. Then I thought I could cook it the day before and gently warm it in the ProQ an hour before I needed it.

What do you think?

The normal recommendation for reheating is to cook it, pull it then vac pack the pulled pork and employ sous vide (boil in the bag) approach. Of course this only works if you've got a vac sealer.

Otherwise, I think if you wrap your butt tightly in foil it should warm up ok, it may dry out a little though.
