Ingredients

Scale

2 lbs pork shoulder, trimmed and cut into chunks
1 cup BBQ rub (store-bought or homemade)
1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup BBQ sauce (your choice)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 lb coleslaw mix
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tbsp apple cider vinegar (for coleslaw)
1 tsp sugar (for coleslaw)
Salt and pepper to taste
Buns for serving (optional)
Pickles for serving (optional)

Instructions

Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C).
Rub the pork shoulder chunks generously with the BBQ rub, ensuring they are well coated.
Place the pork in the smoker and smoke for about 4 to 6 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 195°F (90°C).
During the last hour of smoking, brush the pork with apple cider vinegar to keep it moist.
Once done, remove the pork from the smoker and let it rest for 30 minutes before shredding.
While the pork is resting, prepare the coleslaw by combining the coleslaw mix, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Toss until well combined.
Serve the smoked pork on buns, topped with BBQ sauce and coleslaw. Add pickles if desired.

Notes

For the best flavor, let the pork marinate with the BBQ rub overnight.
Feel free to adjust the spices in the BBQ rub to suit your taste.
You can also use different types of meat, such as brisket or ribs, for variety.
