Texans cook pork, too
Or at least I do. Sometimes.
This weekend we had a small gathering of friends and family as a combo celebration of Father's Day, my birthday and Mrs. G's birthday. Since we were going to do it at my parents' house so we could swim, I decided to do pulled pork as it holds so well with the FTC method. And it's cheap. And I recently depleted my stock of it in the freezer.
Got the Egg all ready to go Friday night with hickory and orange wood for smoke.
When letting the dogs out for the final time and doing a quick spot check on the pig, I saw that we had an uninvited spectator. Not a 'coon like @nolaegghead but one of them nasty possums. :( You can see his beady lil eyes right above my vigilant clueless dog.
Got up Saturday morning, Egg was 1 degree off. I can't believe it. Stupid pit controllers just don't work worth a darn. )
Took it off at the appropriate time, FTCed it and headed over my parents house. Where it sat. And Sat. And sat for another few hours till we finally pulled it.
No pictures of the final plated up product as I was hungry and had consumed a beverage or three and just didn't think about it. Great time was had by all and everybody ate their fill and I walked home with a whole butt that hadn't even been touched. Win win situation in my book.

@Griffin the sauce depends on ones area of NC. I am pro Lexington style as I am from there and still live there (well Thomasville which is next to Lexington).
I do not see a sauce, yet.

@Griffin that is similar to Eastern NC sauce... I think they use half white and half apple cider.

Happy B-day! Spurs didn't just win, they set records for championship game ass-kicking. I'm a Spurs fan unless they play the Pelicans.
