INGREDIENTS

Instructions

  • Double bag the pork butt in resealable freezer bags, then add root beer. Seal and place in a tin roasting pan in the refrigerator to marinate for 24 hours.

  • Drain pork, slather with yellow mustard, then generously apply dry rub.

  • Wrap in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for another 12 hours.

  • Heat your smoker to 240 °F.

  • Smoke the pork until it reaches an internal temperature of 140 °F.

  • Combine 3 parts apple juice and 1 part bourbon into a spray bottle; baste pork generously every 30 minutes until pork reaches an internal temperature of 165 °F.

  • Wrap pork in tin foil and continue smoking until reaching an internal temperature of 200 °F.

  • Remove pork from the smoker (still wrapped in tin foil), wrap in an old towel and place in a cooler to rest for one hour.

  • Place pork in a new roasting pan and pull meat apart in its own juices; add a generous amount of Mrs. Griffin’s Original BBQ Sauce, mix well and serve on a toasted brioche bun or your preferred bread.
