Sides to go with butt

Kokeman

I am having 3 families over Sunday. I am wanting to showcase my egg. I am cooking two pork butts and need some ideas for sides. I was thinking cedar plank potatoes or corn on the cob. About how many cobs can fit on a large with gill extender? Any other ideas?

Cole Slaw. I like vinegar, no mayo. Google Asian Slaw.

Apple Coleslaw with Poppy Seed Dressing

Poppy Seed Honey Dressing:
2 tbls apple cider vinegar
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tbls poppy seeds
3 tbls honey
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup finely minced parsley leaves, optional 
2 Fiji apples, peeled, cored, shredded

1 bag (16oz) prepared coleslaw w carrots

Prepare the Poppy Seed Dressing In a medium bowl, then add the slaw mix and blend well.

This works very well with pork since the flavor of apples is complimentary to pork.

Baked Beans Recipes

Beans, Baked, Keri's Hog-Apple Baked Beans

INGREDIENTS:
3-4 Slices Bacon, diced
2 16 Oz Can Pork and beans, mostly drained (modified to 2 28-oz cans Bush's Baked Beans - see note below)
1/2 cup Blues Hog BBQ Sauce (or other sweet-spicy favorite)
1 lb smoked leftover smoked pork or beef, more or less, or 1 lb crumbled cooked pork sausage
1 Can Apple pie filling
1 medium onion, chopped
1/2 green pepper, chopped
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 Tbs Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbs Mustard (prepared)
1 tsp chipotle or cayenne powder (optional, to taste*)
1 tsp Blues Hog barbecue rub (or your favorite de jour)


Procedure:
1 Brown bacon, and saute onion and green pepper in bacon grease. Mix in remaining ingredients. Bake at 325º for 1 hour, or simmer on stovetop in large pot for 30 minutes if you don't have time to do them in the oven. Serves 12.
2 This recipe began life as APPLE PIE BAKED BEANS from somewhere on the web, but I think I've made enough changes to it now to claim it as my own. This is my standard for baked beans anymore.
3 *This is a rather spicy recipe due to the chipotle/cayenne powder. Feel free to leave it out if you'll be feeding those who prefer a less spicy taste.

Add all the goo from the pie filling. The beans get a rinse.

Carolina cole slaw which is vinegar based. Place a heap on top of your butt sandwich....very good combo.
