Fox News' Take On "BBQ The Way It Was Meant To Be", Pulled Pork Recipe

[Huskee]

My point wasn't so much the recipe itself, we've probaly all had crock pot pork and it's tasty; but calling it "barbecue the way it was meant to be" absolutely IS trying to be authentic, at least in its claims.

The other problem is the vagueness of the ingredients of the rub. "Steak Seasoning" "Burger Seasoning" "Jerk Seasoning" could be any number of various brands with different flavor profiles. In the end it probably doesn't matter that much but I hate the lack of precision.

I am sure it tastes great but it ain't BBQ.

Real BBQ Pulled Pork is done in a pit, Dutch Ovens are Pits.
How about our InstaPot?

Ketchup the other BBQ sauce.

[Mr. Bones]

I have little, if any doubt that ^this^ makes some delicious pork...
Whether I would categorize it as BBQ might well be another conversation, fer another day.

[Mr. Bones]

Preach!

Honestly, this is a pretty classic thing you see on a ton of food blogs. They aren’t trying to be "authentic" or "real" …. Instead, they are trying to provide something that people can easily do at home, without a ton of special equipment or knowledge. And get fairly close in flavor profile.

Now, personally I think this is a cop out, but that’s because I spent a lot of years figuring out how to actually cook in the traditional ways. And it’s not actually that hard, other than the time investment.

But our culture is now oriented around easy, fast, and sorta good enough. Very different from what my father taught me: "If thing is worth doing, it’s worth taking the time and doing the thing right."

I use liquid smoke in my beef jerky brine ….
