Cue the Spooky MAK/Traeger combo.

Some Frighteningly good rub. (Salt Lick Clone and 2/3rds bottle of Williams Enhancer)

A bit of downright Terrifyingly sticky Molasses.

Load 'em up and rub 'em down.

Couple hours on 'Smoke' while the Cardinal's Game is on.

Bump to 225° and head to bed while the smoked pork nightmares continue in the back yard..

Traeger butts are done, wrapped and into the Cambro.

I need the MAK for some poultry work, so I pile the MAK butts into the Traeger and top the hopper off.

These 5 are done.

And the Cambro is stuffed. I yanked 2 out to make room, so they are about to get pulled shortly.

Ok, the first 3 are pulled. Here is 2 of them in a full steam table pan.

Love that Molasses bark..

Those are all stuffed in buckets in the fridge. Now, I still have to pull the other 5 in an hour or so..

--

And... We're done. Ended up with 38.5 pounds pulled pork after some quality control. ;)


Chillin' in the fridge for now. Some will be vacuum sealed for a buddy of mine, the rest will go to the office cafeteria lady for Monday's Pork Treat.

Oh Wow that looks so good!! I can imagine the aroma in your neighborhood... Mmmmmm... :)

And the piles of foil and buckets of grease! Yuk! :cool:


Thanks everyone, it turned out great. She served about 7-8 pounds worth on Monday, and the rest went into the cafeteria freezer for another rainy day. (or 2)

She piles them high, about 1/4 pound per sandwich. Nobody leaves hungry. (and they pay her accordingly ;))
