    I am loving all these ideas! I love pulled pork!

    Net to bacon, pulled pork is easily my favorite pork dish. ;)

    I used this recipe. It's a cup of vinegar and a cup of water or beet juice.

    I'd like to use beets next time, just didn't have any on hand.

    Thanks for this! Using beet juice does sound pretty awesome. I suspect I'll be eating a lot of pork in the next month. LOL

    Mostly agreed, but you can't be sure unless you've tried baby back ribs slow smoked over hickory and pecan with a cinnamon/chili/pepper/sea salt rub. I loves me some bacon and pulled pork, but those ribs...hnnnnnggggg.

    So, @AnvilHead and I were discussing sushi and the idea of a pulled pork hand roll came up. And now it's all I can think about. Rice, pulled pork (or kalua pig), with pickled daikon or tsukemono, with either eel sauce, spicy BBQ sauce or Sriracha, wrapped in nori.

    Thoughts on this admittedly brilliant idea? :#

    I slow cook pork shoulders in my smoker (actually a kamado), using a dry rub and smoking over hickory and/or pecan wood. Sometimes I sauce them with a vinegar-based sauce, other times I'll use a thicker/sweeter Kansas City style sauce.

    Here are two great vinegar-based Carolina BBQ sauce recipes from probably the greatest BBQ site on the web (he has a wealth of information and recipes, all free):

    I tend to prefer either a KC or Texas style over a North Carolina style to for my bbq... kind of a sweet, smoky & hot VS vinegar but I do love to add the NC slaw. So basically I guess I'm an 'ol bbq hoe. ;)

    That. Looks. Fantastic.

    Sadly, I don't have access to a smoker, so I'm relegated to using the slow cooker recipe I linked to above. What kind of wood do you use to smoke it? Hickory? Mesquite? There's a place in Northern California that uses mahogany to smoke all their meats and I've gotta say, it's pretty great.

    Have you ever thought of using one of these countertop smokers? I've never used one, but have seen a lot of chefs use them on Food Channel, etc.

    Yes, I've seen those on Food Channel as well. I look at it as a step above Liquid Smoke, but it's still not quite the same as using an actual smoker, IMO. I want to smoke my own bacon, baby back ribs, a side of salmon, etc. Might be worth a shot, though!

    PS - I love how one of the Amazon photos shows the product being used to smoke a single scallop. Who eats just one scallop? :D

    Oh man, that looks good! You're in CA, right? Like, I could potentially be over in a couple of hours. You know...in case you need help cleaning dishes and whatnot. ;)

    Yep! Come on down! Couple of brews in the cooler, sitting pool-side and the weather is great today!

    Now sprinkle some lemon water and green tea on it, for extra weight loss benefit.

    Add some garcinia cambogia to the BBQ sauce and you'll hit your goal weight in no time! :D

    You already know my thoughts on it. IN!!! If I could find some kazunoko to put in there it would be awesome. Eel sauce would be awesome, but I could also like it with Sriracha and mayo, similar to a spicy scallop hand roll. I'm seriously going to try this next time I do a pork shoulder.

    I usually prefer a KC style sauce too (I make my own from a family recipe my dad handed down), but occasionally I'll do Carolina style just for a change of pace. Since we'll be eating pulled pork for a couple weeks after I smoke a couple shoulders, it's nice to mix it up a little bit, lol.

    Please post a photo when you do! I'll do the same, but I imagine you'll get to it before I do. ;)

    Will do. I'm overdue for a good 'Q day.

    You and me both! I hate living in a building without grills. I was on my HOA's board for a couple of years and tried desperately to get communal grills approved. But for reasons I still can't explain, 51% of the residents voted against. It's maddening. Lol

    I made pulled pork for dinner last night. First time in a long time! Don't have a smoker, so I did it in the crockpot with ACV, tomato, onion, honey garlic BBQ sauce, salt, pepper and fresh lemon, served on warm crusty buns with a big side salad.

    It was heaven. <3

    I would also be in for the pulled pork sushi pics.

    You could market it as an Iowa Roll. :)

    Now that's funny! :D

    Glad to hear the ACV pulled pork was a hit! I won't have time to make pulled pork this week, but I think I'll stop by the Japanese market today and pick up some kalua pig and nori sheets. Photos forthcoming...

    Ha-ha. True. But I've seen them smoke entire trays of food, they just cover it with a cling wrap. I've always wanted to try one out, maybe I should run and buy a scallop?

    PS. I couldn't stand it, after reading this thread my DH & I went out for a bbq lunch. No waiting! :p

    A smoke makes all the difference (LOL...I meant a smoker, but whatever you wish!). If you don't have a smoker, you could always add some chips to a foil ouch, pierce some holes then place that on the coals. I've also seen some use the pouch method in the oven to smoke ribs. Just make sure to soak the chips so that they will smoke and not burn.
