Tender, smoky pulled pork piled high on a fresh bun and topped with a bright, crunchy homemade slaw—Kathy Pullin's "Sassy on a Bun" is everything great BBQ should be. Seasoned with Pullin Premium BBQ's Sassy Sauceless Rub and finished your way, this crowd-pleasing sandwich delivers the perfect balance of savory, tangy, and smoky flavors.

Ingredients

  • 6 to 8 lb Bone in pork butt
  • Sassy sauceless rub
  • Yellow mustard
  • 1 small Red cabbage sliced thin
  • 1 medium Green cabbage sliced thin
  • 2 Carrots shredded
  • 1/2 Red onion thinly sliced
  • 1 Lemon zest and juiced
  • 1/4 cup Olive oil
  • 1/4 cup garlic vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon celery seed
  • 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper
  • Dashes of hot pepper sauce

Directions

    For the Pork:

    1. Place meat in a bowl, rub all sides with yellow mustard, and then rub the exterior generously with Sassy sauceless rub.

    2. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and allow to set for minimum 2 hours, maximum of 72 hours.

    3. Place on smoker indirect heat pit temperature between 200 and 225.

    4. Smoke fat side up for approximately 1.5 hours per lb.

    5. I personally do not use a thermometer on my pork butts. When that bone releases, she is done! I wrap mine halfway through.

    For the Coleslaw:

    1. Take thinly sliced cabbage, red onion, shredded carrots and combine

    2. In small bowl combine the olive oil, garlic vinegar, juice and zest of 1 lemon, salt, pepper, celery seeds and hot pepper sauce (I use 4 to 5 dashes for a batch this size)

    3. Wisk or shake to combine with veggies.

    4. When pork is done, shred, place on top of a bun, top with the coleslaw and drizzle with BBQ sauce, if you must! I personally like to top mine with mango pico! Enjoy
