Butt, sans anus.

We used Louisiana Hot Sauce as an adherent for the rub for Wednesday's butt.
(Not our idea.  Someone mentioned it here a few weeks ago.  He/She
cited Aaron Franklin.)

Applied Hot Sauce and Rub the night before.
(Fat side DOWN, that night.)

Sometimes, you have to get your butt out before dawn.


I pulled my bone out when the butt was done.

Don't have any quality pics of my pork after pulling.
(Insert entendre here.)


IMO, using the hot sauce was a good idea.  All of the heat/tang is in the bark, so once you pull your pork, your tang is thoroughly mixed in with the meat. 
Even then, a sensitive spouse or guests may complain about the heat, but don't worry about it.
After what took place today, we're all gonna die!

    Fine looking grub. Anus would have put it over the top though ;)

    Serious question, how do you make the pics move like that?

    Giphy.com is one of many sites that allow free GIF (slide show) construction.
    It's pretty intuitive.  A Trump supporter could do it.

    Under supervision.

    You get that one for free since you used anus in the title ;)

    I'm bumping this because it had anus in the title. I want the word to get around.

    Nice. I use Louisiana Hot Sauce on my french fries. Have to give it a try on my next pork butt.

    Louisiana is better than Tabasco IMO, not that it matters in the fog of bark (where your ingredients are transmorgified <invented word> into something...different).

    Melinda's is made in Costa Rico and, PR, or somewhere....sold everywhere, I think, and I just never find anything as good, to me.  And I try all the time.  I'll go through a bottle a week or two.

    Have you tried them both on anus by chance?

    In the new world order, where political correctness is the antithesis of, ummm, the predominant vernacular-turned-mainstream jargon of the silent majority, we must be precise in describing our cooks regarding the addition or absence of such ingredients as "anus".  I know, I know...I'm not that enthusiastic about it either, but I don't want to be caste (pun regarding good ol days Indian socioeconomic class) into the social gutter.  (lose my job, home, etc.)

    Sooooo....Get used to it.

    I apologize to all my Jewish brethren, but it's "America First".  Or was it "Fist".  I'm super confused.  Also pickled.
