Default Injecting pork?

I'm doing some pulled pork for a party this weekend, probably a couple

8-9lb
butts. I've always done them with just a mustard slather and then my own
rub, but I think I'd like to try injecting them. Not sure exactly what

with
though. I'm thinking maybe some peach juice with some of my rub mixed
in,
getting the flavor of the rub cooked in with the meat internally. Any
thoughts?



Peach juice? Why?

Pork butts don't need to be injected to be very tender, just cooked
correctly.

If you want to use fruit juice on a pork but, try marinating it in papaya,
a
natural tenderizer.

Why would you want to tenderize pork? If it gets any more tender than
pulled pork, it turns to mush.
