Butt Smokin' and Jambalaya
Posted on 8/27/16 at 8:18 am
Posted on 8/27/16 at 8:18 am
A friend of ours that loves my cooking asked me to make some pulled pork and jambalaya for a couples shower for a family member. So about ten thirty last night forty pounds of pork butts went on the Traeger for a overnight smoking. They're still on there and the whole neighborhood smells delicious not to mention that they look really nice. They'll be removed and pulled later.
Yesterday I did the prep work for the 5 gallons of jambalaya I'll make this afternoon. I smoked the chicken thighs a bit for more flavor.
The butts on the Traeger
The chicken getting a lill smoke
Smoked, garlic and hot sausage getting sliced as well as dicing the tasso. You've got to remember staying properly hydrated when doing this type of work too!
More updates later..........

Rubbed 'em with some honey and then seasoned with Emeril's Essence(someone gave me a couple of 21 oz. containers)mixed with turbinado sugar.
Here's what they looked like a while ago.

Wow, that looks incredible!

Here are the butts after they came off the Traeger and cooled enough to handle pulling. Got busy and forgot to get picture of the pork after it was pulled. Gorgeous! And tasty too!!!
Cooking the sausage for the jambalaya
Everything but the rice at this point
It was time to leave and the pictures I took came out crappy but here's what the final product looked like in a serving I set aside for my son.

That bark. Damn.
So you use honey like a lot of people use mustard? I like the idea.

Thanks!
Yeah, it holds the rub better and longer and the sugar in it allows for a nicer bark. Sometimes I use cane syrup which is pretty awesome too.

Do you do the same for ribs? I just usually use turbinado sugar on my ribs since it doesn't burn.
Posted on 8/27/16 at 6:42 pm to Janky
I have but not always. It's better to add a lil honey toward the end of a rib cook.

Very nice I'd love to have a serving

Yeah, I use the Johnny Trig method and add honey, butter and brown sugar when I wrap.
