North Carolina pulled pork sandwich

Posted By Biggie On July 17, 2006 @ 4:30 pm In equipment, meat, salad, sandwich or wrap, thermal lunch jar | 2 Comments

Spent Sunday smoking a couple of pork butts on our kludged-together flowerpot smoker for pulled pork sandwiches. All packed in my Nissan Stainless thermal [1] lunch jar to keep the cole slaw fresh and cool.

  • bun cut to fit the container
  • homemade pulled pork, smoked for 15 hours
  • vinegar hot sauce for the pork
  • homemade buttermilk coleslaw
  • blackberries and “mango nectarines” — a new kind of nectarine with a slight taste/texture of mangos (quite good!)

Here’s the pork shoulder on the smoker.

Insulated smoker kludged together from flower pots and an electric coil burner a la Alton Brown’s Good Eats — our first smoker ([5] details here). We’re looking at getting a proper smoker now that we’re really into it.
