Servings: 10

Preparation duration: 15 minutes

Cooking duration: 405 minutes

 

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper

1 cup cider vinegar

1 9 to 10 pound pork shoulder butt (all skin and fat left on, thank you very much)

1 tablespoon red pepper flakes

1 tablespoon salt

1 tablespoon sugar

1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce

2 cups white vinegar

Equipment:

grill

frying pan

bowl

cutting board

roasting pan

aluminum foil

Cooking instruction summary:

1. Soak 6 handfuls of the wood chips in water to cover for 45 minutes.2. Get the grill ready. Open one bottom and one top vent on a kettle grill, place an aluminum drip pan in the bottom of the grill, stack charcoal briquets evenly around the pan (not in the center), and ignite the coals. When the coals are ashen (30 to 45 minutes), sprinkle 2 handfuls of the soaked chips evenly over the hot coals. Place the grate on the grill about 6 inches over the coals.3. In a nonreactive bowl, combine the vinegars, sugar, red pepper, Tabasco, salt, and pepper and stir until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce is well blended.4. When the coals are ready on the grill, position the pork butt, fatty side up,on the grate over indirect heat. Mop the pork with the sauce—a brand spanking new pastry or paint brush works well for this. Close the lid on the grill and cook for 3 hours, mopping the meat every hour and replenishing the coals and chips as they burn up.5. Turn the pork butt, close the lid, and cook until the meat is quite tender, 2 to 3 hours more, mopping every hour and replenishing the coals and chips as needed. Reserve any unused moppin’ sauce.6. Transfer the pork butt to a chopping board. Remove and discard any chunks of fat. Either coarsely chop the meat and crisp skin or pull it into shreds. Transfer the pork to a roasting pan, drizzle with about 1 cup of the sauce, and toss well, nibbling as you do so to ensure you’ve added just the right amount of sauce. Serve immediately or cover with foil and keep warm.7. To serve, mound the barbecue on plates or buns and pass the remaining sauce on the side.

Food Joke

The dinner party Freda and Moshe Levy won 8 million pounds in the National Lottery. They immediately went out to begin a life of living in luxury. They bought a luxurious mansion in Northwood, surrounded themselves with all the material wealth imaginable and decided to hire a butler. After much searching, they found the perfect one. One day, they instructed the butler to set up a dinner for four because they were inviting their friends, the Cohens, over for dinner and they will be going out for the day. When they returned that evening, they found the table set for six. When they asked the butler why six places were set when they specifically instructed him to set the table for four, the butler replied: "The Cohens called and said that they were bringing the Bagels."
