Traeger Pulled Pork Recipe

Traeger Pulled Pork Recipe

The smoky flavor you get from slow cooking a pork roast is the best way to cook tender pulled pork for pork sandwiches and more!

INGREDIENTS: – pork shoulder roast (bone in or boneless) – Traeger Pork and Poultry Dry Rub – your favorite bbq sauce – apple cider vinegar

Step 1: When you’re ready to cook your pulled pork turn the Traeger on to smoke and leave the lid open for 5 minutes to start the smoke. Close the lid and set the temperature to 250 degrees F.

STEP 2: Prepare the pork roast by dabbing any excess liquid off with paper towels.  Remove any connective tissues or excess fat that you see.  Next, sprinkle the dry rub all over the roast.

STEP 3: Place the seasoned roast directly on the grill grate. Close the lid, and cook for 2 hours, turning over halfway through.

STEP 4:  After 2 hours, place the roast in a shallow aluminum foil baking dish. Pour the apple cider vinegar over the roast, and cover the dish tightly with 1-2 pieces of foil

STEP 5: Cook for 2-3 more hours, until the pork reaches 205 degrees F. Keep the pork wrapped in foil while it rest for 30-60 minutes. Remove the roast from the pan and shred with forks.

After shredding the pulled pork, add your go-to barbecue sauce, and enjoy! Serve your pulled pork between buns with lemon tahini slaw.
