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?
injecting pork helps the flavour a bunch--imo anyway. Usually use a
modified Chris Lily injection on butts at contests--with decent
results
Our injections on contest meat make the pork taste hammy.... great if you
want it that way I guess so I finally talked my partner into cutting back
on
it. What is a Chris Lily injection?
Salt and anything nitrate/nitrite contributes to the hammy taste. Fruit
juice doesn't.
Google "Chris Lilly" + "injection"
Bet you get some good links.
