COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:
Pulled Pork Jicama Slaw Sandwich
Dry Rub
- Mix all dry rub ingredients together in a bowl until well-combined.
Pork Smoking
- Liberally coat pork butt with mustard then rub. Tightly wrap pork in plastic wrap and allow to sit in refrigerator overnight.
- Remove pork from refrigerator and let come to room temperature for 45 mins to 1 hour.
- Preheat smoker to 225º.
- Unwrap pork and smoke for about 3 hours or until internal temp reaches 155-160ºF. You’ll notice the temp starting to stall around this range.
- Remove pork from smoker and tightly wrap in foil.
- Return pork to smoker and cook until the internal temp reaches 200º.
- Remove pork from smoker. Let it rest for 10 minutes. Shred the pork and toss it in your BBQ sauce of choice. We used Williamson Bros. Classic Carolina Style.
Jicama Slaw
- In a medium-sized bowl, mix all ingredients together until well-combined. Store in refrigerator until ready to use .
Pulled Pork Sandwich Build
- Turn oven to broil on high.
- On a Kaiser roll, pile a heaping serving of shredded pork and extra BBQ sauce, if desired. Top pork with a slice (or two) of cheddar cheese.
- Place sandwich under broiler until cheese is melted. Remove from oven and top with a liberal serving of jicama slaw. Enjoy!
