2 A Smoked Pork Sandwich

Smoked Pork SandwichOnce I made those no-knead rolls, I KNEW the perfect filling...smoked pork. Watch out...my mouth is already watering!

A few years ago, my husband fell in love with smoking...meat, that is. He does not have a smoker, but a good friend of his does. There are a variety of smokers, but the best ones are the kind that automatically feed the 'pellets' of wood throughout the smoking process. Low and slow are the keys to a mouth-watering, tender meat!

I use this pork, combined with Bull's Eye BBQ sauce and honey (50/50 ratio) and pile it on the roll. I also use this pork in my tamale recipe that I will share with you the next time I make it.

This recipe uses a rub for the outside of the meat. It should cover two large pork shoulders or more. Spread the rub EVERYWHERE...every nook and cranny that you can find. The rub creates a soft crust surrounding the meat and allows the juices to stay inside.

  1. I'm guessing you had the pork smoking while the rolls were in process? If not you have more will power than I to save the rolls for smoked pork instead of, say, butter!
