Recipe Preparation
  • Pork butt, 10-12 lbs
  • Sriracha (or mustard or other hot sauce)
  • BBQ rub
  • 2 cups Coke (or beer, soda, juice)
Step Description
1
Get a pork butt around 10-12 lbs. Score the fat side, and use sriracha as a binder (can also use mustard or other hot sauce). Cover completely using your favorite BBQ Rub.
2
Set your smoker to 225°F (107°C), and set your custom temperature of your ThermoPro TP960 TempSpike 500-ft Truly Wirefree Meat Thermometer to an internal temperature of 170°F (77°C). Once this alarm automatically goes off, remove the pork butt from heat.
3
Place the pork butt in a 1/2 pan with 2 cups of Coke (beer, soda, or juice will also do). Cover with foil and put it back in the smoker to continue to cook.
4

Remove from heat once the TempSpike alerts you that the pork butt has reached an internal temperature of 203°F (95°C). Rest for 1 hour.

PROTIP: Use a foil 1/2 pan under the pork butt to catch the fat and use this fat when you add the Coke, beer, or apple juice when wrapping! Fat = Flavor!
