    Pulled Pork - Sous vide then smoked

    This weekend was my latest attempt at pulled porking using both the sous vide and smoker. I had about a 5 lb pork shoulder from Costco, rubbed it in Meathead's Memphis Dust and salt and let sit overnight in the fridge. Then cooked it sous vide at 165 degrees for 24 hours followed by an immediate ice bath. The next day I rubbed it with some more MMD and then smoked at 275-300 for about two hours. Pics below are rubbed (raw), rubbed again after sous vide, on the smoker and then off the smoker. You can see it started to pull apart as I removed it from the smoker with the tongs (need to get some gloves)


    As you can see in pic 3, I threw some ABTs on the grate at the end of the pulled pork. I ultimately pulled the pork and mixed with a vinegar/mustard sauce and then made pulled pork empanadas with the pork. The Michigan football (go blue!) was about to start so I didn't get a picture of the sauced pork or the finished empanadas but they turned out well.

    The pulled pork was a bit drier than last time I did this but was still pretty good and had a good bark, decent smoke flavor and a small smoke ring. Next time I may dial the sous vide temp down to 160

      The pork looks great and UM looked great as well (which is hard for me to say being a lifelong Spartan).

        I think the dryness is coming from the smoking temp. Try to smoke it at a lower temp.
