I plan on smoking a 10 lb. pork butt tomorrow. All I do is season it with salt and pepper and then I'll wrap it with a bit of apple juice or apple cider.
There is just me and the Mrs.
Tomorrow night I'll serve it freshly pulled with a bit of the pan juice poured over the top.
We will have BBQ pulled pork sliders during the week and pulled pork tacos also.
What are some other things I can do with the pulled pork
Large Big Green Egg, Weber Performer Deluxe, Weber Smokey Joe Silver, Fireboard Drive, 3 DigiQs, lots of Thermapens, and too much other stuff to mention.
You're doing pretty much would we (me and Mrs) would do with it. I used to bring the leftovers to work for the guys to have as a feast, but upper management stopped that (long story). So now, whatever is left over I freeze, and 3 months leter it becomes the what-is-this surprise dinner!
Put some in Mac and cheese, pulled pork tacos or quesadillas are great, put some on top of a cheese pizza, or mix it is jambalaya or gumbo. Put some in a pita with veggies or a little in deviled eggs. I like to freez left overs in portion sizes in vacuum bags, and make it the center piece of my next meal.

Yes! After making pulled pork, I almost always follow up with a night of homemade enchiladas. Super easy to make your own flat enchiladas with Masa flour. Kids even like to get involved and use cookie cutters to make shapes with their tortillas. simple store bought enchilada sauce, cheese and pork makes for a great meal!
In addition to alla th above, most excellent suggestions, I often find my dang self makin sammiches outta pulled pork, fer an expeditious, nutritious, delicious, an convenient meal option!
Here's a couple that I've done posted, previous, like:
I love my BBQ leftovers. Do all sorts of things with them, from breakfast to midnight snacks to another dinner. Figured I'd start a thread for folks to post a

If it helps ya any, don't rightly reckon I've ever found me any dang thing that some pulled pork didn't make better!
Kinda like bacon, in that respect!
One reason I quit cooking pork butts, just never know what to do with it all. We prefer now to cut it into pork steaks and cook them that way. I know I’m in the minority on this but just got tired of pulled pork.
There are so many ways to use pulled pork, but... after an experience where I smoked 84 butts for the high school cheerleaders one time, I didn't smoke a single butt even for myself for 3-4 years at least! I just didn't want to SEE another butt after that.
One of the nicest things about adding sous-vide to the mix is that I can do pulled pork in much smaller increments these days. If I'm only cooking for my family, I can do like... 3 lbs at a times which is good for dinner and a couple lunches as opposed to like... 2 weeks of pork, lol.
What to do do with Pulled Pork?
