Oh dear God, I've never been happier in my life. I was literally crying with happiness and hugging myself while eating today. I'm going to be fat by the time I get out of pharmacy school. One of the benefits of boxing (non-professionally) is that you can eat all day long. So you want to know what a 7.40 lb roasted pork butt looks like?
Bam! That's what it looks like. Beautiful. So I salted and peppered it and put it in the oven on 300F for about 5 1/2 hrs. Take it out and let it sit for at least an hour. Then shred that baby.
Then I slathered the remains in the BBQ sauce I made from the Professional Chef. I told you I made a ton of it. As a matter of fact, I've still got plenty left. Check out the recipe on our earlier post "Nothing Green Southern Cooking..."
And, of course, I had to make my own buns.
You can check out this recipe on another earlier post, "Burgers for my baby". This time I actually just used bread flour instead of adding some WW. These buns took the sandwich to a whole new level. The pork was done before the buns so I used one of my roommates store bought ones. Then I ate another sandwich with the fresh-baked bread. The difference was astounding. That's actually when I started crying and holding myself.
I also made the vinegar cole slaw again. Once again, check out the "Holy Lord Barbecue" post for recipe. I left out the corn this time.
Oh, my word. That looks amazing.
