Oven or Crocked Pot Prepared Carolina BBQ Pork

By JulieCraig

Remember to by bone in pork butt. The bone holds the meat together and provides more flavor. Plus, it is really cool to pull the bone from the finished roast like a magician pulling a rabbit from his hat!

Ingredients

• 1 bone in pork butt ( 5-7 pounds)
• 7 Tbsps of Cue Culture BBQ Seasoning mix
• 1 Tbsp of liquid smoke
• 1 med onion, sliced
• 1 cup water - Dutch oven only
• 1 bottle of your favorite Cue Culture BBQ sauce
• 1/2 cup bourbon
• 3 bay leaves
• BBQ sauce of choice for serving (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

In the large crock pot or Dutch oven you plan to cook in, rub the meat on all sides with Cue Culture BBQ seasoning. Leave any extra seasoning in the pot.

Place all the other ingredients in the pot with the pork butt being careful not to wash the rub off the meat.

Place Dutch oven in a preheated 350 degree oven and cook for 3 -1/2- 4 hours or until an instant read thermomether reads 170 degrees F and the bone is loose in the roast. Check every hour or so and add more liquid to the pot as needed to keep from burning.(If using a crock pot,combine all ingredients as above in the crock pot. Set the crock pot on LOW and cook for 7-8 hours or until the bone slides easily out of the meat)

Remove form the oven and let cool

Using rubber gloves pull the meat apart with your fingers; add some of the accumulated juices from the pot.

Mound the pork on your favorite sandwich roll and enjoy with the BBQ sauce of your choice.
