Ingredients
For The Brine
- 2 cups apple juice
- 1 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 cup water
For The Pork
- 9 pounds bone-in pork shoulder fat trimmed
- ¼ cup Dijon mustard
For The Rub
- 3 tablespoons sea salt
- 2 tablespoons cracked pepper
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons onion powder
- 2 tablespoons paprika
- 2 tablespoons cumin
Instructions
- 12-24 hours in advance of smoking, score the top of the pork with a sharp knife, then place the raw pork in a resealable container and add brine ingredients to cover.* Keep refrigerated until ready to smoke.
- Preheat smoker to 200 degrees and let sit at temperature for 15 minutes before adding meat. Remove pork from brine and pat dry, then coat in dijon mustard. Mix together rub ingredients and sprinkle liberally over meat on all sides.
- Place pork on the center of the smoker grates and insert meat probe into the middle of the thickest portion of meat. Close the lid and let smoke at 200 degrees until meat probe reads 165 degrees internally, anywhere from 5-6 hours.** Raise temperature to 250 degrees and continue cooking until probe reads 210 degrees, around 5-6 hours more . Remove pork from smoker and let sit, untouched, for 30-60 minutes before shredding. Enjoy!
Notes
- *Depending on the size of the container and cut of meat, you may need more or less brining liquid. Adjust the recipe as needed to ensure liquid covers the meat completely.**Cooking time can vary depending on the size and shape of the cut of meat, the ambient temperature outside, wind conditions, and various other factors. Rely on temperature rather than time.
