Steps:
- The night before, make incisions in pork butt and stuff with jalapeno peppers. Then, rub with your favorite blend of Cajun spices.
- Start fire in smoker about 13 hours before you want to serve the pork. When the temperature reaches 200 degrees F, put pork butt in, uncovered. About 7 hours later, take meat out and baste with your favorite BBQ marinade, wrap pork in foil and return to smoker. Turn heat up to about 300 degrees F and let cook about another 5 hours.
- When the bone slides out, the pork is done. Remove from smoker and pull pork apart. Serve on a bun and if, desired, your favorite barbecue sauce.
THE BEST PULLED PORK
Chipotle powder, apple cider and ketchup create the perfect balance of smoky, sweet and tangy without the need for a smoker or grill! For our classic, satisfying pulled pork, all that's required is a flavorful homemade rub and a long trip to the oven to cook low and slow until it's meltingly tender. Eat it as-is, or pile onto a potato roll with your favorite toppings for the ultimate sandwich. Coleslaw is a traditional accompaniment, and we love a vinegary one for the way it cuts through the richness of the pork.

Steps:
- Whisk together the chile powder, salt, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar in a small bowl until completely combined and no lumps remain. Spread the spice rub evenly over the pork butt, pressing it into the flesh on all sides. Let the pork sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour or wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 48 hours.
- Position a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat to 275 degrees F.
- Whisk together the barbecue sauce, apple cider, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and the remaining 1/2 cup brown sugar in large Dutch oven or other heavy large pot until combined. Transfer the pork and any accumulated juices to the pot, turning the pork to coat it with sauce. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat. Then cover, transfer to the oven and bake until the pork is very tender and easily shreds when pulled apart with a fork, 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Let the pork cool uncovered for 30 minutes.
- Reserve 1 cup of the sauce for serving, then smash the pork into the remaining sauce with a potato masher; it should fall apart and shred completely. Stir to combine the pork with the sauce. Serve on toasted potato rolls topped with coleslaw. Pass the reserved sauce.

Steps:
- For the pulled pork: Mix the paprika, pepper, salt, chili powder, garlic powder and brown sugar in a bowl. Rub all over the pork. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour or up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Pour the beer into a roasting pan. Place the pork in the pan, cover with foil and bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 170 degrees F, about 6 hours. Remove the pork from the oven and let the meat rest for at least 20 minutes.
- Heat the barbeque sauce in a saucepan over low heat. Keep warm. Shred the pork using two forks. In a large bowl, toss the pork with the warm barbeque sauce until well coated.
- For the coleslaw: Whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar and granulated sugar in a large bowl. Add the cabbage and carrots and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. The coleslaw can be made up to 2 hours in advance.
- To serve, spoon the pulled pork mixture onto the bottom half of a brioche bun, and top with some coleslaw and the other bun half.
