Old-Fashioned Pot Roast
May 29, 2020
- 1 boneless pork shoulder roast (Boston butt), 4 to 5 lbs (1.8 to 2.2 Kg), rolled and tied
- Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
- Hickory chips, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes
Season the roast with salt and pepper and cook over a low, indirect fire until the meat is very tender and has reached an internal temperature of 190F (88C), about 3 to 4 hours. Add hickory chips to the coals in small amounts during the cooking. Slice, chop, or "pull" the meat into small pieces and toss with a little bit of sauce. Serve additional sauce on the side. Serves 12 to 15.
They say that a barbecue expert can tell which North Carolina county you live in based on the type of barbecue sauce you prefer. I don't know if that is true, but I do know there is a fierce rivalry between the vinegar-based and ketchup-based factions, so I have decided to give them equal time here.
