Papoo's Pulled Pork

The sandwich that sells the sauce at every festival.

Makes 12-16 sandwiches

Ingredients

• 1 pork butt (7-8 lb)
• Dry rub
• Olive oil
• ½ cup apple juice
• Papoo's BBQ Sauce
• Buns

Instructions

1. Rub the pork with oil, coat with your rub, and refrigerate while the smoker heats.
2. Set the smoker to 240°F and add wood chunks (we use hickory and cherry).
3. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 160°F, about 6-8 hours for a 7-8 lb butt.
4. Fold heavy foil into a pan shape and set the pork in the middle.
5. Pour the apple juice over the pork, seal the package, and return it to the smoker without puncturing the foil.
6. When the pork reaches 195°F, take it off and rest it on a baking sheet for 30 minutes.
7. Discard the juices and shred.
8. Mix in 1-2 cups of Papoo's BBQ Sauce, saving some for the table.
9. Pile on buns and enjoy.
