Your Barbecue Season Saturday Evening Post

Tonight, for the hockey game meal, it’s pulled pork. I had to fight through the “honeydo” list earlier today, so I’ve earned me some quality meats.

I started it in the slow cooker for about 4 hours, and then transfer that bad boy to the grill. Keeping the temperature about 250° for about 8 hours total should afford me a juicy sammich when it comes time to sauce & tear that bad boy apart. Broccoli slaw will be the accompaniment of choice; it’s a firmer crunch than regular coleslaw, and I pass way less gas when I avoid the cabbage.

Joining me for that meal will be a nice, sharp Pilsner.
