Hey everyone let's show Darrin some love and subscribe to www.youtube.com/@AshKickinBBQ - and drop him a comment to tell him Al sent ya!
Glad you explain to everyone the benefits of using a water pan on a pellet grill, and putting the meat on the upper rack. It’s true the temperature on the upper rack will be slightly cooler than the bottom. This is why I run the pellet grill at 200 in the beginning then after the stall up the temperature to 275 - 300 degrees to help render the fat. (Plus I’ll foil boat to help continue bark and confit the under side)

I've had a traeger for years, and instead of limiting yourself to just the top rack, use an aluminum serving tray and put a wire rack on top of it. Place the pork butt/brisket or other larger cuts on the wire rack. This way, you don't have to worry about scorching the bottom of the meat and you can capture all the fat/drippings in the tray. I'll usually use those drippings and pour them over the meat before wrapping. Some don't like to do that because they say it will take away the bark, but honestly, for pulled pork it's not that big of a deal. It's all gonna get shredded up and more bbq sauce or juices will be poured on it anyway. I've been doing pork butts and briskets this way for years and it's absolutely money.
Ok, I'm doing this recipe for a 20+ person dinner tomorrow. I think the lemon zest and wet marinade will bring huge results! I normally do this Souvla style, but this looks like a contender. I think I'll add a dash of red wine vinegar into the marinade as well for a bit of zip and meat penetration, but overall I like the elements of yours. Oh and get that man a napkin!! Thanks Al!

Enjoy Corey! I think the red wine vinegar will be a nice addition. I don't know if I'd do it in the marinade or just add it with the extra marinade and rub at the end when you pull it (think NC BBQ adding ACV at the end) - but either will probably be good.
I really enjoy watching these videos Al. I appreciate the time you spend going and talking to pitmasters at different resturants and showing us their methods. I'll have to give this one a try since all the other methods you've shown have turned out great for me!

I subscribed to AshKickin BBQ because he has some very interesting cooks going the extra mile. This pulled pork looks great and I have to try it too. The Costine ribs were very wonderful done in a Green Egg and got to see if I can copy these. Al you are finding a sweet spot for how to go to step up a KZread BBQ channel with these different methods. My spice drawer is growing is size and may require another drawer just to keep up.

Al, can you please share the recipe for the homemade pita and Tzatziki? That pork looks wonderful! Also, There's a guy on youtube you should check out, Mr Flavorsmith. I think he's out in California and he does his cooks on a weber kettle grill. He made a Purple Pork butt, that he made by marinating overnight in grape juice. That looks interesting. I'm going to try that out as well at some point.
Looks fantastic. I will certainly be trying this! If its anything like your Simon & Garfunkel butter, then I have every confidence this will be delicious😋

So exciting! Which smoker will he be using? I see you're starting a little collection!
Coming from a Greek, you killed it :) A few extra spices then I would normally see in a Greek marinade like Dried basil or Marjoram but its all legit. And why not show people how to make Tzatziki sauce. Its so simple Greek Yogourt mixed with Sour Cream, Dill, Seedless cucumber squeezed to remove all the water, olive oil and garlic to taste and a pinch of lemon. Amazing video. I think I am going to do a Greek version too :) Just Oregano, lemon and olive oil for the marination and Italian parsley not that curly stuff which is useless :/

So good Daniel! Try this!
I grew up in Melbourne, Victoria - home of the largest Greek community outside of Greece. A number of my school friends were Greek - but lamb was the primary meat of choice (hence no surprise why I love it sooo much) But this looks extremely moreish - actually have never done pulled pork - have had it a few times, just never made it. Must fix that soon I think

It's time, Andrew. Pulled pork is a staple. But do it BBQ first so you can appreciate this recipe - if you do it the other way around you might think the BBQ is too bland!
Hey Al, let me give you a life changing tip. Dry aged pork. You can buy a True (brand) fridge on craigslist for 300-600 that new is 2-3k. They are the perfect meat aging fridges, since they have multiple fans. Take pork primals and age and trim after 20 days. Mind blowing. It tastes like pork did when we were kids.

Garlic aioli.........now you're talking! I can't wait to hear how you like it when you try it man - it was SO GOOD!
ALL Meater-type ambient probes are inaccurate due to the proximity of the ambient sensor to the meat. Only Combustion, Inc. is honest about this. I have a Typhur and it is excellent as long as you measure the ambient temp with something else. Physics!
@BehindTheFoodTV
Ай бұрын
Inaccurate might not be the right way to phrase it - they are accurately measuring air that is affected by the combination of a warm environment and proximity to colder meat - which is more of an issue at the beginning of a cook. But hours in that difference is negligible. Appreciate you joining the conversation though!

Fat needs heat to render, and the water slows down the process. There is enough fat throughout the pork butt to keep it moist during the entirety of the cook.
