Every Pork Butt has a Little Captain in them...

[THE ICEMAN]

Well maybe not every pork butt...

Anyway, I decided to do some pulled pork today. Started with about a 4 1/2 lb pork butt & injected it with Capt. Morgan spiced rum & let it sit in the fridge overnight...

I then had to make up a batch of rub but found I was out of cayenne & had to improvise with some habenero seasoning...

All rubbed & ready...

Fired up the Horizon to aboot 220° with some mesquite...

On the smoker...

In the middle of the smoke I decided to throw on some store bought canadian bacon for a Hawaiian pizza to be named later...

Ready for the foil & cooler at aboot 200°. Time on the smoker, aboot 9 hours. It stalled for aboot 4 hours or so. Oh yeah, I decided to do some smoked taters too. Slathered in EVOO & sprinkled with sea salt, yummy...

The butt was foiled in the cooler with some apple juice/spiced rum mixture for a couple of hours.
I also made up a batch of red wine vinegar BBQ sauce. I will post the results on the morrow.

Thanks for lookin' everyone...

Betcha that'll have a bit of zing to it eh!

I played with wine vinegar way back. Hmmm dunno why I have not used it lately. Adds a distinctive flavor. Nice!

Pulled it apart late last night, came apart real easy...

And on the plate. Mighty tasty...

Oh yeah, the taters were great. First time I had tried putting smoke to a tater.

Yep, fixed one up with some butter & sour cream, they had a nice subtle mesquite flavor.
And thanks for the points.

Thanks. I don't get to smoke as often as I'd like so I just soak up all the info here & apply it when I can.
