Steps:
- Make small holes all over the pork shoulder with a thin sharp knife and stuff in garlic cloves. Rub the meat all over with the Memphis Shake; cover and refrigerate overnight.
- Prepare an outdoor grill with an indirect medium-hot fire with a mix of briquettes and hardwood charcoal in half of the grill. Set grate over coals. Place pork, skin side up, in an aluminum pan with about 1 1/2 cups water on the cooler side of the grate. Toss 1 cup of the soaked and drained wood chips onto the coals and cover the grill, making sure the lid's vents are directly over pork.
- When the coals cool to medium-low heat, preheat a chimney-full of hot briquettes and hardwood charcoal. Whenever smoke stops coming out of the vents, about every hour, add more hot coals and 1 cup of soaked and drained wood chips to the fire. The goal is to maintain a medium-heat, smoky fire (but don't worry if it is hotter when the coals are added and cooler while preheating the coals). Rotate the pork when you add coals so it cooks evenly. Cook the meat until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork registers 180 degrees F, about 6 hours.
- Set aside 1 quart of the North Carolina-Style Vinegar BBQ Sauce. Once the pork reaches 180 degrees F, begin mopping the entire surface of the meat every 20 minutes with some of the remaining sauce and the pan drippings. Continue to cook the pork, covering the grill between mopping, until an instant-read thermometer registers 200 degrees F, about 1 to 2 hours more.
- Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest for at least 15 minutes. Remove the outer skin and discard. Cut large chunks from the bone and shred, using 2 forks or your fingers, (when cool enough to touch) or chop. Toss with about 1 cup of the reserved barbecue sauce for every 3 cups of meat. Tuck the pork into the soft rolls and serve with pickles.
- Whisk paprika, brown sugar, oregano, garlic, ancho powder, salt, and celery salt in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to 2 months.
- Heat the vinegar and sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat until the sugar dissolves. Off the heat, stir in the ketchup, honey, salt, red pepper, and black pepper.

CAROLINA PULLED PORK SANDWICHES
With the help of your trusty slow cooker, you can enjoy tangy pulled pork with just 30 minutes of hands-on time. Browning the meat before placing it in the slow cooker will create a nice crust and seal in all of the flavor without drying it out. De-glazing the pan with a Pilsner-style beer will ensure that you soak up every last bit of browned meet for even more flavor. Cooking the pork low and slow will allow it to easily fall off the bone, and you'll be able to shred it using two forks. If you're in no hurry, cook on low for 8 to 10 hours. Or if you need it be done quicker you can cook it on high for 5 to 6 hours. The homemade Carolina-style vinegar sauce comes together with ingredients you probably already have on hand. We recommend serving with an assortment of toppings like pickles, sliced onions, coleslaw, and plenty of extra sauce.

Steps:
- Prepare the Carolina Vinegar Sauce: Vigorously whisk together vinegar, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire, crushed red pepper, and mustard in a medium bowl until sugar dissolves. Measure 1/2 cup sauce into a small bowl; reserve for slow cooker. Cover remaining sauce (about 2 cups) in medium bowl; set aside for serving.
- Prepare the Pulled Pork: Pat pork dry with paper towels. Stir together pimenton, brown sugar, salt, mustard, onion powder, celery salt, garlic salt, and pepper in a small bowl; sprinkle all over pork. Heat oil in a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over high until hot but not smoking. Add pork; cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides, about 10 minutes. Transfer pork to a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker. Add beer to skillet; reduce heat to medium, and cook 30 seconds, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from skillet bottom.
- Pour beer mixture and reserved 1/2 cup sauce over pork in slow cooker. Cover and cook until pork easily pulls away from bone using a fork, 5 to 6 hours on HIGH or 8 to 10 hours on LOW. Remove pork from slow cooker, and transfer to a large heatproof bowl; let stand 15 minutes. Remove and discard bone. Shred meat using 2 forks. Add 1 cup of the reserved sauce from medium bowl to meat, and toss to coat. Serve pork on buns with remaining sauce on the side.

Steps:
- Mix together the brown sugar, smoked paprika, chili powder, black pepper, dry mustard, granulated garlic, cayenne and 2 teaspoons salt in a small bowl. Rub the pork all over with the spice mixture.
- Heat an electric multi-cooker on the browning or sear function. Add the olive oil. When hot, add the pork and brown on all sides, about 6 minutes. Pour in the apple juice and 1/4 cup of the cider vinegar. Cover, lock the lid, and set the multi-cooker to High Pressure; cook for 40 to 45 minutes. Release the steam according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Remove the pork to a rimmed baking sheet or large plate and tent with foil; let cool slightly. Skim off any excess fat that has risen to the top of the braising liquid, then stir in the remaining 1/4 cup cider vinegar and the ketchup. Pass some of the sauce through a strainer into a serving vessel or cruet.
- With two forks, pull the pork into shreds, discarding any large pieces of fat. Add the pork back to the remaining sauce in the multi-cooker and keep warm.
- Serve the pulled pork on rolls, topped with Cider Vinegar Slaw. Pass the extra sauce on the side.
- Whisk together the vinegar, ketchup, sugar, celery seeds, hot sauce and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a large bowl until the sugar dissolves. Whisk in the oil to make a smooth dressing.
- Add the cabbage and red onions to the dressing, and toss well. Cover and let stand at room temperature for about 20 minutes to wilt the cabbage slightly. (The slaw can also be made several hours ahead and refrigerated.)
- Sprinkle the slaw with the parsley; toss and serve.

Steps:
- Bring vinegar to a boil with sugar, red-pepper flakes, 2 tsp salt, and 1 Tbsp pepper in a small nonreactive saucepan, stirring until sugar has dissolved, then cool. Set aside 2 cups vinegar sauce to serve with sandwiches.
- While sauce cools, score pork skin in a crosshatch pattern with a sharp knife (forming 1-inch diamonds), cutting through skin and fat but not into meat. Pat meat dry and rub all over with 1 Tbsp each of salt and pepper. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour before grilling.
- Prepare grill for indirect-heat cooking over low heat, leaving space in middle for disposable roasting pan.
- When coals have cooled to about 300°F (45 minutes to 1 hour; when most coals will have burned out), put disposable roasting pan on bottom rack of grill between the 2 remaining mounds of coals, then fill pan halfway with water. Add a couple of handfuls of unlit charcoal to each charcoal mound, then put grill rack on so hinges are over coals.
- Oil grill rack, then put pork, skin side up, on rack above roasting pan. Grill pork, with lid ajar (for air, so coals remain lit), basting meat with sauce and turning over every 30 minutes (to maintain a temperature of 250 to 275°F, add a couple of handfuls of coals to each side about every 30 minutes), until fork-tender (a meat fork should insert easily) and an instant-read thermometer inserted 2 inches into center of meat (avoid bone) registers 190°F, 7 to 8 hours total.
- Transfer pork to a cutting board. If skin is not crisp, cut it off with at least 1/4 inch fat attached (cut any large pieces into bite-size ones) and roast, fat side down, in a 4-sided sheet pan in a 350°F oven until crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.
- When meat is cool enough to handle, shred it using 2 forks. Transfer to a bowl.
- Serve pork, cracklings, and coleslaw together on buns. Serve reserved vinegar sauce on the side.

I like to call this "The Worlds Greatest Sandwich". Cooked overnight in a crock pot, the meat is tender, juicy, and messy..the way a BBQ sandwich should be. Top it with your favorite cole slaw, and you have one tasty meal. This is South Carolina style BBQ. (Thanks for everyone who clarified that for me)
