Smoked Pulled Pork Recipe
3-4 pound pork shoulder
3 teaspoons garlic powder
3 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon Chinese five spice
1 teaspoon minced ginger
1 teaspoon cayenne powder
1 teaspoon ground mustard
6 teaspoons brown sugar
12 teaspoons soy sauce

Combine above ingredients into a paste and rub on the pork shoulder. Let rest for 3-4 hours or until the pork reaches room temperature.

Load the wood tray of your smoker up with one handful of hickory chips and pre-heat to 225° F. Be sure to check the chips throughout the cooking time.

Place in smoker and cook for 6 hours. Occasionally, baste the pork with the following mop recipe throughout the cooking time. Then finish cooking in a low oven (225° F) until the internal temperature of 195° F.

Once the meat is tender, remove from the smoker and let cool for at least 20 minutes before pulling apart with a fork.

Serve with warmed corn tortillas and top with slaw and a drizzle of the soy reduction.
