These South Carolina Pulled Pork Bombs are packing some serious punch! Bursting with flavor and tender beyond belief, these sliders are perfect for any gathering or indulgent meal at home.
Start by taking your boneless pork butt and cutting it into chunks roughly the size of a softball or baseball. Don’t worry about being too precise here; the key is ensuring the chunks are large enough to retain moisture during the cook. The next step is to coat each piece generously with hot mustard, which will act as a binder for the rub.
Next, let's get them seasoned! Mix equal parts of Killer Bee Honey rub, Dirty Bird rub, and Double Pepper Cow Cover rub in a bowl. Once the mustard is on, sprinkle the rub mixture liberally over each chunk, making sure all sides are thoroughly coated.
Finally, let your smoker to preheat to 225°F (107°C).
Once the pit is hot, place the seasoned pork chunks directly on the grates. Let them cook for about 2 hours, flipping them over at the 1-hour mark to ensure even cooking. During this stage, the rub will start to set. Once the chunks have cooked for 2 hours, it’s time to move on to the wrapping process.
Wrap each chunk in cellophane, ensuring a tight seal by wrapping four times across each axis. Place the wrapped chunks into a roasting pan and cover the pan with aluminum foil. Keep the smoker’s temperature steady at 225°F (107°C) to avoid melting the cellophane. Let the pork cook for 5-6 hours, or until its internal temperature reaches 195-200°F (90-93°C). This slow cooking process ensures the pork becomes incredibly tender and soaks up all that smoky goodness we want.
When the pork is ready, bring the pan inside and let it cool slightly before handling. Carefully cut through the cellophane—this is when the magic happens! Be cautious, as the juices will be hot.
Shred the pork with ease, then pile it onto slider buns. Add a drizzle of Competition BBQ Sauce and a generous scoop of coleslaw for that quintessential South Carolina twist. Take your first bite, and enjoy the explosion of smoky, sweet, and tangy flavors. These Pulled Pork Bombs truly live up to their name!
