NORTH CAROLINA-STYLE PULLED PORK



North Carolina-Style Pulled Pork image

Melanie Dunia didn't know much about barbecuing when she was hired as a sous chef at The Pit in 2013, but her experience working in Asian restaurants turned out to be a real help: On one of her first days, The Pit's head chef asked her to roll a couple hundred of the restaurant's beloved BBQ Soul Rolls - North Carolina-style pulled pork, collards and carrots in an egg roll wrapper. "They were so impressed, but it was nothing for me!" she says. In just a few years she shot to the top spot in the kitchen and became the only woman in the region running a pit.

Time 9h

Yield 15 to 20 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 10- to 12-pound skin-on, bone-in pork butt
3 cups apple cider vinegar
2 1/2 tablespoons hot sauce (such as Texas Pete's)
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
2 1/2 tablespoons red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Soft hamburger buns, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium low and prepare for indirect cooking: On a gas grill, preheat the grill, then turn off the center burners. On a charcoal grill, light the coals, then push to the edges of the grill, creating an open space in the middle; put a disposable aluminum drip pan in the middle of the grill under the grates.
  • When the grill registers 250˚ F, place the pork on the grill grates over the cooler part. Cover the grill and cook the pork until the skin is crisp, the meat easily falls off the bone and a thermometer inserted into the center of the pork (away from the bone) registers 190˚ F to 200˚ F, 7 to 10 hours (if using charcoal, adjust the air vents and add more coals as needed so the temperature stays around 250˚ F).
  • Meanwhile, make the barbecue sauce: Combine 1 cup water, the vinegar, hot sauce, sugar, red pepper flakes, 2 1/2 tablespoons salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper in a pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until the sugar and salt dissolve. Let cool.
  • If using a gas grill, turn off the heat and carefully transfer the pork to a cutting board. If using a charcoal grill, do this quickly, as the grease may cause the coals to catch fire. Let the pork rest at least 30 minutes, then pull the meat off the bone with tongs and a large fork; discard the bones and any large pieces of fat. Chop the crispy skin and stir into the meat. Transfer to a bowl and toss with 1 to 2 cups of the barbecue sauce. Serve on buns with the remaining sauce.

This recipe is delicious, especially when smoked with hickory chips on a charcoal grill. A spicy rub and a zesty vinegar sauce turn pork into a North Carolina favorite.

Time 15h

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 tablespoon mild paprika
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1 ½ teaspoons hot paprika
½ teaspoon celery salt
½ teaspoon garlic salt
½ teaspoon dry mustard
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon salt
8 pounds pork butt roast
2 cups cider vinegar
1 ⅓ cups water
⅝ cup ketchup
¼ cup firmly packed brown sugar
5 teaspoons salt
4 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
2 pounds hickory wood chips, soaked

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix mild paprika, light brown sugar, hot paprika, celery salt, garlic salt, dry mustard, ground black pepper, onion powder, and salt. Rub spice mixture into the roast on all sides. Wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate 8 hours, or overnight.
  • Prepare a grill for indirect heat.
  • Sprinkle a handful of soaked wood over coals, or place in the smoker box of a gas grill. Place pork butt roast on the grate over a drip pan. Cover grill, and cook pork until pork is tender and shreds easily, about 6 hours. Check hourly, adding fresh coals and hickory chips as necessary to maintain heat and smoke.
  • Remove pork from heat and place on a cutting board. Allow the meat to cool approximately 15 minutes, then shred into bite-sized pieces using two forks. This requires patience.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together cider vinegar, water, ketchup, brown sugar, salt, red pepper flakes, black pepper, and white pepper. Continue whisking until brown sugar and salt have dissolved. Place shredded pork and vinegar sauce in a large roasting pan, and stir to coat pork. Serve immediately, or cover and keep warm on the grill for up to one hour until serving.

NORTH CAROLINA PULLED PORK SANDWICH



North Carolina Pulled Pork Sandwich image

In North Carolina we call this BBQ! You can feed a crowd with this recipe. Pile the meat high and top with Lexington-style coleslaw - Yum-Yum.

Provided by cathy tate

Categories     Sandwiches

Time 4h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

4-5 lb pork shoulder roast
18 oz bbq sauce
12 oz coke-a-cola
2 c cider vinegar
1/2 c ketchup
1/4 c brown sugar, packed
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp kosher salt
1 Tbsp white pepper
1 tsp crushed red pepper
1/2 tsp black pepper
2 c shredded coleslaw mix

Steps:

  • 1. Place pork roast in a dutch oven. Pour BBQ sauce and Coke over roast. Cover with a tightly fitting lid. Wrap entire pan with aluminum foil to ensure a tight fit. Cook at 320 degrees for 4-4 1/2hrs. After 4 1/2hrs remove from oven and check to see if meat falls apart easily; if not, raise temp to 350 degrees and return to oven for another 30-40 mintues. Remove from oven and remove roast from juices. Pull meat apart slowly removing visible fat. Shred meat. You can spearate meat at this point if wanted into two groups (this is what I do); in one group add some of the juices that the meat was cooked in for a sweeter pork sandwich; in the other group leave the meat as is and serve with the Lexington-style coleslaw for a true North Carolina BBQ sandwich.
  • 2. LEXINGTON-STYLE BBQ SAUCE: Combine the cider vinegar, ketchup, brown sugar, sugar, kosher salt, white pepper, red pepper and black pepper in a medium, nonreactive bowl. Let stand at least 10 minutes, stirring occationally. Can be made up to 1 week ahead and stored in the refigerator.
  • 3. NORTH CAROLINA COLESLAW: Combine the coleslaw mix and 3/4 cup of the Lexington-style BBQ sauce in medium bowl. Refrigerate, covered 2 hr or overnight.
  • 4. TO ASSEMBLE: To hamburger buns layer pulled pork (piled high)then North Carolina coleslaw. You may add a little more of the Lexington-style BBQ on top for an extra kick if wanted.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 4h20m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 -6 lbs boneless pork shoulder
2 cups cider vinegar
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon salt
hot pepper sauce, to taste
10 -12 hamburger buns, split and toasted
Coleslaw (optional)
4 cups wood chips (use hickory or oak chips for the best flavor)

Steps:

  • BBQ Sauce:.
  • In medium bowl, combine vinegar, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, Worcestershire sauce, salt and hot pepper sauce. Divide sauce into two portions; set aside.
  • Pulled Pork:.
  • At least 1 hour before grilling, soak wood chips in enough water to cover; drain before using. Rub meat with salt and black pepper. In a charcoal grill with a cover, place preheated coals around a drip pan for medium indirect heat. Add 1/2 inch hot water to drip pan. Sprinkle half of the drained wood chips over the coals. Place meat on grill rack over drip pan. Cover and grill about 4 hours or until meat is very tender. Add more preheated coals (use a hibachi or a metal chimney starter to preheat coals), wood chips and hot water every 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Remove meat from grill; cover with foil and let stand for 20-30 minutes. Using a fork, shred meat into long, thin strands. Pour sauce over shredded meat; toss to coat. Serve on toasted buns. If desired, top meat with coleslaw. Serve remaining sauce on the side.
  • * Note: For gas grills, preheat and then turn off any burners directly below where the food will go. The heat circulates inside the grill, so turning the food is not necessary.

CAROLINA STYLE PULLED PORK SANDWICH



Carolina Style Pulled Pork Sandwich image

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)
