I'm going to make some hatch chile pulled pork enchiladas this weekend with butts I smoked last Saturday. I did a "fast" smoke at 300F..about 1 hour per pound.









Enchilada sauce with hatch chiles, some pork and Pasilla, Morita, Cascabel chile paste. Toning down the heat with tomatoes and chicken broth.


Chile paste

So many interesting ways to use pulled pork besides the basic BBQ.

You can also slice it up thinly, put it on a skewer/spit/rotisserie for pork gyro

Korean pork rice bowls

Shoulder steaks

I've done a "poor mans" porchetta with a fileted portion of pork butt before. Came out pretty good.

I ordered a pork roast this week thinking I would get a 3 or 4 lb roast, but I got an over 8 lb shoulder when delivered. I'm not interested in pulled pork or any kind of bbq. I really want a good pork roast and gravy for rice. Considering trying a version of the Mississippi roast, but with pork like Darla mentioned. It's too big for my crockpot I believe, so I'll have to cook it in the oven unless I trim some off. I want a LOT of gravy.

Any suggestions?

Gris Gris,
The beer braised that I just mentioned would be ideal. It’s cut in big chunks (incl bone) seasoned, seared and then braised low and slow for hours. LOTS of delicious “gravy”!

Checked the weekly ad and didn't see this sale listed. Did you see this advertised or just in store when you went in?

Walked into rouses this am in Kenner, and they had them for .88lb. It’s the twin pack but butcher split into individual pack for freezing purposes. Great price.
